Jay Rock stopped by The Breakfast Club this week following the release of his Redemption.
Rock explained that he’s never felt bitter about others’ success in TDE because they’re his brothers and came up together. “If I feel like I’ve made it, they all made it. If I feel like they’ve made it, I feel like I’ve made it,” he said. “So it’s never no bitter or no feeling no type of way. Don’t feel sorry for me ’cause Rock a soldier. I come from the projects. I done been through it all so that ain’t nothing.”
Rock went in depth about the serious motorcycle accident that changed his life in 2016. “I was just thinking about a lot of stuff like, ‘damn, I could have really died.'” He continued, “It encouraged me to go extra hard. I always had the drive but it put my driving mode in a whole another gear.”
He also talks about the meaning being Redemption, working with J. Cole, the rumor about JAY-Z being on the album and much more.
