“It’s not a real show if all you’re seeing is a rapper
walking back and forth across the stage,” says the
Mississippi MC, who occasionally opts for a different
mode of transportation. “I’m bringing it back to the Kiss

those shows and you got mad, you got happy, you got
sexy. You get the same things from me—guaranteed.”
