“I’m such a fan of Juicy J, like Three 6 Mafia… like that’s just some of my favorite music of all time. So when I cut that song, I was hitting certain Juicy J ad-libs and I was like damn, it would be really fire if we could go get Juicy J on this. And we got the song to him and he sent it back within 24 hours… I lost it,” she added, “I was so happy, because I love Juicy J, he’s a legend.”
Hot 104.1 Interview
The, Whole Lotta Money, rapper goes on to talk about performing with legendary rapper Busta Rhymes for the "50 Years of Hip Hop" tribute for this years BET awards, calling the moment "surreal"
“My dad used to listen to Busta Rhymes with me all the time, so like I just love Busta Rhymes music and I know like every word to like every song. So to be a part of that tribute, 50 Years of Hip-Hop, that’s like such a legendary moment, I’m so grateful for that.”
When asked about the current narrative that female rappers only "rap about one thing"...
Bia says, “People just hate… you gotta let people do what they do. There’s something for everyone. So my music might not be for every single person, and somebody else’s music might not be for every single person. That’s why we need an active representation… so there’s something for everyone.”
“You know, nobody chirps when men do that,” she continued, “like nobody really cares when men rap about the same things. So it’s like the girls are having a moment, and respectively we’re all different in our own way, and everybody just has to get over it.”
Check out the interview where they also discuss how her favorite career high, thus far, has been flying to London to meet up with J Cole to shoot the video for the track "London" and how travelling, the last few years, has inspired her sound for her latest album "Really Her".
