הסמים הרסו לו את המוח
I was signed to Interscope for six months, and the parameters of the deal with Shady was within six months of my Interscope deal being signed, they could either sign me or not sign me. They passed on me.
Complex: Did you like actually go sit down with them?
Freddie Gibbs: I sat down with Paul. Eminem heard my music and he didn't wanna take a meeting with me.
Complex: Was that disappointing to you?
Freddie Gibbs: I guess it was disappointing because I saw he signed niggas like Ca$his and I was like, man, get the fuck outta here. These busters can't hold a candle to me. It was a lot of youth in those feelings. I just wasn't in the right state of mind at the time. I felt like they were shitting on me. Like I wasn't dope or something like that. But in the grand scheme of things that just gave me the mentality like, fuck these niggas, I'ma show 'em. I ain't mad at them at all for not signing. It was a blessing in disguise. But once they said "no," my shit was in limbo.
