LAKEWOOD MALL by Vince Staples Song Info
"That’s one of my best friends, Tyson Smith. He’s doing a lot of time right now, and it’s funny because he had got arrested a while ago and I was in Atlanta, and when I came back and started making music, I wasn’t around that much, because it was still kinda tricky. And one of my homies had told him, like, ‘'Yeah, Vincent rapping’‘ and he was like ’‘What?’‘ Like, that’s weird, because I’m not an outgoing type of person, but I remember he said, ’‘What does it sound like? Like Soulja Boy?’‘ 'Cause we used to listen to Soulja Boy on some fun-type stuff. And it’s funny, because when I became succesful, he was like ’‘Nah, you was always gonna be good’‘." – Vince Staples, via HOT97
