21 Savage is the latest rapper to claim that the violence in his lyrics is all false…weeks after Fat Joe made the same claim.
Young Thug’s song lyrics are currently being used against him in his RICO trial.
According to 21, the majority of his lyrics are “fiction as hell.”
“I just think of it in my head,” he told Rolling Stone. “Some of it be based off of real life, but a lot of it be creative stories.”
Weeks back, Fat Joe said: “I’ve been rapping professionally for 30 years. I’ve lied in almost 95 percent of my songs,. I’m being honest. I write like I feel that day. I’m just being creative. You couldn’t build a jail high enough for the lyrics I’ve said on songs which are all untrue. What I am is a family man, the person who gives back to my community all the time, opens businesses in my community. So the music would never amount to the actual person, Joseph Cartagena,” he told Gayle King.
“What’s even more horrible is that the district attorneys, they know those lyrics ain’t real. They know that’s creativity. But if it helps their case, they’ll use it to put these guys in jail,” he added.
Y’all believe 21?
