Houston's Nigerian-Born Battle-Rapper Godwon
Balls and His Word
HP: We've always been curious, why don't rappers smile when they take pictures? They're rich, right?
G: I would smile if I were them. I am poor, though. I simply don't smile much 'cause I was taught that here in America. You should see my grandparents' pics, though (laughs).
HP: Let's finish this in the most stereotypically rapper way possible: shout-outs! Go.
G: I'd like to send a shout out to Reggie B, E Ladder, everybody who reads this and cops a CD, Uncle Face Mobb, GC FAM, Rando The Boss. I want everybody who wants to eat authentic African food to grub at my mom's restaurant, Suya Hut. Shout out to my Nigerians and Africans, the foolish rapper that I beat the shit out of outside 24 Hour Fitness [and] 97.9 The Boxx.
HP: Whoa, whoa, whoa. You beat up someone outside 24 Hour Fitness?
G: I don't want to promote violence, man, but there was a rapper who went on air saying he beat me up. It really caused some challenges for me. I just couldn't catch up with the dude for like three years. I seen him at the gym, we stepped outside and I beat him till he ran off. Sometimes you simply have to protect your name.
