Gucci Mane Covers Latest Edition of Fader, Talks Coming Home & ‘Everybody Looking’
by Site Manager
Gucci Mane has had our undivided attention since he was released from prison, and with his new album, Everybody Looking, the Atlanta rapper has a lot to celebrate.
The hip-hop veteran recently sat down with The FADER magazine for their latest cover as the 36-year-old goes into details about being behind bars, his new music, and much more.
The “Out Do You” MC mentions how life in prison was hell by saying, “It was a maximum security prison and it was a lot of violence. People were dying every week. [But] I think it helped me to get to the point I’m at now, to drive me out from the drugs. It gave me time to reflect, it made a lot of relationships that were toxic in my life just fall away.”
Gucci also adds that he’s always trying to help people out whether if it’s through music or on a daily base.
“A lot of artists have a problem with putting other people on, and people don’t embrace them [when they do it] because it ain’t genuine. I’m always trying to help people. I wouldn’t give a damn if I get four artists right now and all of them burn me. I’mma get me four more, because I feel like the more people I help, the more good I do. No matter what a person does, helping somebody can never hurt me.”
