Less than two weeks ago, it was reported that YG was shot in the hip at his studio and taken to a local hospital to be treated for gunshot wounds. In his first interview since the shooting, YG reveals details of what happened on the night of June 12.
According to the Compton rapper, he was only shot once and the bullet was close to hitting a major artery. He also got in an accident on the way to the hospital, and he had to jump in another car just to make it there. When asked if he knew who shot him, YG emphasized that he does not know who did it and it was not gang-related.
Throughout the rest of his interview with the magazine, he talks about what his parents have been telling him since the shooting, why he jumped back in the studio the next day after being shot and why his heart his numb.
You just played a new track “Twist Your Fingers” about your experience being shot. Was that hard for you?
Was it hard to write about the situation? No, not at all. I mention it and talk about it on the record and let everyone know what and let everyone know whatever they going to know. I’ve been through real shit and I still go through real shit, and I made it in sticky situations and turned the negative into a positive.
As far as the album is concerned, YG revealed the name and said it’s called Still Krazy and that DJ Mustard might be on one record. Watch the entire interview over at Billboard.
