“I know Obama been pardoning people,” the No Limit boss tells HipHopDX during an exclusive conversation. “This is my letter to the President. When you look at Corey Miller, he’s not a bad person. He’s somebody that I love. Yeah, he’s not perfect. Maybe he did some things in his past, but right now, he’s in prison for a crime that he didn’t commit. The things that he did, he paid his dues for the crimes that he did in his past. Everybody has a childhood, nobody’s perfect. I feel like the system locked in on him and targeted him… Even to me he’s done some crazy stuff, but I love him. We’re blood.”
Elsewhere, following the passing of D4L member Shawty Lo, Fabo spoke with DX about the death of his friend and group member.
When Fabo heard the news, he says it broke his heart.
“He meant everything, especially in the 2000s,” Fabo says of Shawty Lo’s influence in Hip Hop. “This new wave we have comes from that time. Hip Hop in general, he’s one of the godfathers of the real street music that comes out today in regards to Trap. He also is the godfather of Snap because he put us out there. Without him, there would be no us. He meant a lot to the Hip Hop community.”

Kool Keith also chopped it up with HipHopDX about Marvel making a movie about him and addressed the youth of Hip Hop being dismissive of Hip Hop’s roots.
“That just means they don’t have an education,” he concludes. “There’s no proper education. They don’t really know the knowledge or who is who. They don’t know any better. They’re saying anything that comes out of their mouth without any research. A lot of them think they’re good. They come from an era of non-learning. The learning process they have is so poor. You hear the songs they make? They’ll stay in the chorus for 19 bars and maybe rap for like one-and-a-half bars. That comes from improper upbringing.”
