January 31, 2022

Los Angeles, CA – 2 Chainz stopped by Home Grown Radio on Saturday (January 22) ahead of the release of his new album Dope Don’t Sell Itself to celebrate the new project and 10th anniversary of his debut Based On a T.R.U. Story. In the interview, 2 Chainz spoke frankly on the perils of being a famous rapper. He even said he’s gotten in more frequent trouble with the law since becoming famous.

“I actually got arrested more times being a rapper than when I was trapping and doing everything else,” the 44-year-old rap star said. “I got locked up in the airport. I had a four-finger ring in LaGuardia they charged me with brass knuckles. Locked me up. I got caught in L.A., back when I was on the lean bad, they went in my bag, found lean, took me off the plane.

“I got fucked up in Oklahoma for, they say it was a hostage situation, something. I don’t know what they try. Standoff. They told the tour bus while we us on it, disconnected the generator. You know early on I just felt like maybe I was a target or something, but you know.”







Elsewhere in the interview, Tity Boi offered some words of advice for those who have been struggling through the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Like really like, if you alive and if you can and able to just see anything that’s good and positive we gotta enjoy that man,” he said. Like somebody in my position I wish I would complain. You know God would get mad at me for complaining. ”



2 Chainz unveiled the album art for his forthcoming Dope Don’t Sell Itself record on January 25. The art features a shot of 2 Chainz’s bedazzled hand and wrist holding a blunt and shoebox overflowing with cash. Chainz wrote in the caption the cover was partially a recreated image from his childhood.
