Description

Today on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we welcome one half of the Young Gunz and State Property representer Neef Buck to the Upper West Side! And as a bonus for this bonus episode, another member of State Prop, Freeway stops by! Neef discusses the challenges and realities of growing up in West Philly and North Philly, meeting Young Chris, rapping around Philadelphia, getting the attention of Beanie Sigel's manager Stevie G, bringing Chris into the fold and creating Young Gunz, and cutting school to spit for Jay, Dame and Biggs, Puffy, Chris and Dave Lighty and others. Neef talks about not messing with the idea of State Property early on and eventually becoming family, putting in time at Baseline while everyone else would record, looking for every opportunity to jump on tracks, learning from being cut out of deals early and then diving into the business end of things via the Roc-a-Fella staff, and why he couldn't stay away from the streets. We get into stories about Jay, Dame, Biggs, Wayno, Shari Bryant, Emmanuelle, Lenny S, Big Face Gary, Kevin Hart, LeBron James, Ryan Press, Rocawear, studio budgets, Will Smith, Can't Stop, Won't Stop, getting chased by fans, how Philly became a second home to the Roc, his new release Forever Do Me 9, and so much more!
