"Roddy remembers being introduced to Young Thug by Nipsey Hussle. “Nipsey knew that Thug was a nigga that I really f*** with, and he wasn’t a hater nigga,” he says. “He was like, ‘Let’s pull up on him.’ He understood it. Man, I’m almost 10 years younger than these people. They’re like my older brothers.”

From there, Thug and Roddy developed a close bond. Before the arrival of PEMFBA, Thug even made two separate $20,000 bets that Roddy would achieve milestones the young rapper didn’t even think he was capable of.

“He bet $40,000,” Roddy says. “And both of these s***s happened. So I was just like, ‘All right, I owe him $40,000.’ And just for him believing in me like that, showing that type of love, and never changing on me, I decided to rap on his s***,” he adds, referencing his recent freestyle over Thug’s “Bad Bad Bad” instrumental on Power 106. “Just because that’s my nigga. And all the YSL guys, like Keed, Gunna, everybody over there—it’s all love with them.”"
