The Liftoff w/ Justin Credible & DJ Sourmilk Podcast

Roddy RIcch has returned to the Power 106 studios and this time, he’s hit up the LIFTOFF show with the L.A. Leakers Justin Credible and DJ Sourmilk to run down his latest project ‘The Big 3.’

Speaking with Justin, the Compton-bred rapper has a new outlook on life as he’s bounced back from setbacks but also in tunnel vision on his musical journey and finding success.

Roddy’s current EP couldn’t have come at a better time, as he admittedly shares that he feels people often forget about his level of artistry, which is now on a larger scale and he’s stepped out of his regional Los Angeles upbringing. The rapper is definitely working to maintain respect in the game and continue to level up and a few artists and his peers have looked out for him in a way that he gives people like 21 Savage, Kodak Black, the late Nipsey Hussle, Mustard, Post Malone and more their due flowers.

Roddy has learned a great deal from his peers, more notably the lessons he’s taken away from Hussle and his close friend Posty. Roddy states that he’s learned to be unapologetically himself from Post and he learned about securing energy from the late Nip. Roddy’s ties in the game run deep as he’s built strong relationships in the industry and his unwavering support for the YSL crew, Young Thug, and Gunna is a true testament to that fact.

Speaking on the unfortunate case against YSL, the “Late At Night” rapper shared his perspective on the case and what his friendship with Gunna means to him as the Atlanta native is currently behind bars. Roddy Ricch goes on to speak on the recording process for ‘Big 3,’ his recent New York City arrest, which he explains was a misunderstanding, hopes to collab with Ariana Grande, and much more.

As this has been a learning and growing process for Chris, he also tells the Leakers that he used to delete comments off of his social media account for nearly two years. A lot of Chris’ accomplishments can’t be looked over and for him to continue to run into obstacles at this stage in the game, really is an inspiration for those who are coming up because Chris has proved that everything is about timing.

Reflecting on some of his career moment highs and great memories, Chris talks about his experience opening up for Beyonce back in 2007.
