Berry<\/em><br \/><em><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Editor\u2019s Note: This story appears in the\u00a0Summer 2026 issue of XXL Magazine, on newsstands\u00a0now and available for sale on the XXL website.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The <em>Price of Fame<\/em> is an album for the average man. The working man. The struggling man. People that could go through hell and back to provide and protect their family and be successful. For a long time, as a persona, we have to portray this person that\u2019s bigger than life. And I think when I really took a deep dive into people that create, it was more about relatability than not being relatable. And I was about not being relatable.<\/p>\n<p>When we create, it\u2019s like, how are we above these people? That\u2019s not who I want to be as a creative. I want to be relatable. I want people to understand my journey. I want to understand other people\u2019s journey. And when people listen to my music, I want them to be like, \u201cYeah, I\u2019ve been through some of the same things.\u201d So, I want people to connect with what I\u2019m talking about more so than listening to it because they want to go to the club.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s so many songs on the album that embody where I\u2019m at in life right now. \u201cProduct of My Environment\u201d is a song that I love. \u201cHe Never Left\u201d and \u201cNo Tears\u201d embody it. They all have different pieces of where I\u2019m at in life right now because it\u2019s just the album is just really my true feelings and emotions. I really poured that into it.<\/p>\n<p>I feel like it\u2019s important for me to teach people how not to go through what I went through and how to come out of things like depression. And I didn\u2019t know I was depressed or having mental health struggles until I really came out of it. The only thing that got me out of depression was doing normal stuff that I love, little simple things that make me happy. We forget that we chasing happiness at the end of the day. We take that for granted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet You Some Money\u201d [is a] Jesse Powell [sample] and it just reminded me of my childhood and times where life wasn\u2019t about social status or things of that nature. I come from Detroit, which is a hustle city. So that\u2019s what I knew growing up. When I was making \u201cGet You Some Money,\u201d the tempo just led me to talk about it, and I wanted to inspire people to not be so one-dimensional when it comes to hustling, because that\u2019s not what we know. We grew up selling candy, doing all types of things, washing cars, paving, [cutting] grass. I had a job at 14. I don\u2019t want people to be embarrassed of taking care of their family. So, when I was making a song, I wanted it to be tasteful. I wanted the kids to understand it, but I wanted it to have a message too.<\/p>\n<p>I really took a deep dive and tried to make what I feel like is a classic album from what<br \/>I know growing up and what I like out of hip-hop. I got a song called \u201cDear Mama,\u201d which is like Tupac Shakur\u2019s \u201cDear Mama\u201d-esque. I got a song called \u201cParanoid\u201d where I\u2019m talking about being paranoid. I call myself God\u2019s guinea pig. I be feeling like God be using me, and for some in this point in time, I feel like he\u2019s using me more than ever.I think this is the rebrand. This is me shedding skin. This is the part where I transition from one type of artist to another, switch tiers. I feel like I\u2019m switching tiers this time around. My first album on a label. I\u2019m really switching tiers, changing gears, getting out of one car to another.<\/p>\n<p><em>The\u00a02026 XXL Freshman\u00a0issue is available to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.xxlmag.com\/products\/xxl-magazine-freshman-class-2026-issue\" target=\"_blank\">purchase here now<\/a>\u00a0as well as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.xxlmag.com\/products\/xxl-magazine-freshman-class-2026-cover-short-sleeve-t-shirt\" target=\"_blank\">merch<\/a>.
