“This was like straight independent. I always heard of Lord Tariq ’cause he used to be on all of the Doo Wop mixtapes, but I had never heard of Peter Gunz. Big Kap used to play this before Flex got on, and I saw Flex give him the ‘shoulder.’ We thought it would be regional since it’s about the Bronx, but it blew up nationwide.”
