The "Out Here Grindin" rapper went on to share that he was brought to the gig by his uncle along with his cousins. About the show, he recalled, "Jay-Z opened up for him … I saw him perform in Jacksonville, Florida. DMX made me cry."
"When he said that prayer at the end bro? Me and my cousin [were] holding hands. Man, we was holding hands crying," Boosie added. "It was my first big concert I ever been to … I never seen nothing like that in my life."
Elsewhere in the interview, Boosie talked about his close relationship with Pimp C who helped him out of jail after he stole a car. "I was 17. I was in jail on a.. stolen car charge. I had to remain for 90 days and he came and got me out of jail," he revealed.
The artist recounted, "I called my mama and my mama like, 'Some guy named Pimp C and these boys they're trying to get you out of jail boy, you know Pimp C?' I'm like, 'Yeah, I know Pimp C!' A couple days later, I don't know they pulled some strings and got me out of there. I did like sixty-something days they got me out and the rest is history."
Boosie also told the host that the moment he went out of jail was the beginning of his close relationship with Pimp. Recounting what they liked to do together in the past, he elaborated, "We went and rode around, ate, smoked some weed. Chilled out, talked to me. Went in the studio, made a couple songs… the whole point about it is Pimp C was the decoy."
