Frayser Boy: I ended up hooking up with them through another artist that they used to have in Three Six Mafia. He used to be in my hood and we used to be tight. Basically ya know he once didn’t have a vehicle back then. This was before all ya know we made a lot of money and whatever. He ain’t have a vehicle so I just ya know gave him a lift to the studio. I ended up going in a couple of times saying what’s going on and I ended up getting through to Paul and Juicy and I ended up started working with them towards promotion and stuff like that, and I just been with them ever since.
WOS: Growing up in Memphis who apart from 3-6 Mafia did you bump?

Frayser Boy: Paul and Juicy they was in Texas at one time and they were doing a track for Paul Wall I think, Mike Jones, one of them. Ya know they just traded off. Juicy had already had the beats. They laid their verses on it and then they decided to let me get a verse on it and ya know we just made it happen.
WOS: You shot the video for it, so do you know when that’s going to premier?
Frayser Boy: Yeah, it should be on any day now ya know what I’m saying they had to re edit it but you should be seeing it any day now.

Frayser Boy: Man they had everything set, they make life so easy man they just give me tracks and I mean pretty much ain’t nothing that I’m gonna say I don’t like. I never really heard a Paul & Juicy track yet that I can say I didn’t feel.

Frayser Boy: I just think I outdone myself, I think I really did a good job. I listened to it last week. I went up to the studio and just listened to it and there isn’t nothing I wouldn’t change on it and if I had a chance to do it again it would turn out the same, I love it.
WOS: Saying that is there anybody that you wanted to get on the album that couldn’t get on there?
Frayser Boy: There a lot of people that I wanted to get on the album, but if I had the chance to get everybody on the album I wouldn’t have any room for myself ya know what im saying. So many people that I would love to work with but I guess as my career goes on I get a chance to get with em sometime.
