He was like my little brother gonna get out and kill it. It was a beginning stage. My brother had a crew of MCs under his wing, but he knew I was already doing my thing since I was little. He knew I was always a little more advanced, a little more passionate. We always knew the main goal should be let's build on our brand. Even though Alley is at the forefront, let's keep emphasizing Duct Tape. That way people know that whatever we put out is pure quality."
