XXL
sat down for an interview with Aasim.
In 2007, it will have been 10 years since B.I.G.�s passing. Diddy says that you�re the lead-man for the new Bad Boy era. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
In ten years, I pray that I�m a billionaire. B.I.G. was B.I.G., and there will never be another one like him. I would never try to fill those shoes or anything like that. It�s unfortunate that he lost his life. It�s sad that I never got a chance to work with him. I would try and spread the message that beefing and all that bullshit in hip-hop isn�t really cool. I want to take some of the street seriousness out of the game, where shit changes and egos don�t clash as much. I heard �Pac say that he wanted to spark the brain of the person who changed the world. Well, B.I.G. and �Pac were pieces of a puzzle and I want to add onto that framework. I want to live the way that I�m supposed to and leave my mark the way I am going to. I can�t ask for anything more than that.
Listen to a snippet of it in the video below.
Aasim's bio at Bad Boy Online has been updated. But, it seems a little outdated. "Puff Daddy?" "The end of 2005?" lol... alrighty. But, it does say he'll have a street single called "Welcome to Bad Boy" featuring Diddy. Now, whether that was gonna happen back in 2005 or it's going to happen, I have no idea.
