During a recent conversation with XXL, Boosie Badazz spoke on various topics including his approach to music following his release from jail last March.
“I had [a lot of] papers I wrote on,” he says. “Half of them was already in my head, hooks and shit like that. I had done maybe 100 songs since I’ve been home. Once I drop the album, my label, Bad Azz Music Syndicate, we just gonna flood the streets with music, man.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah,” Boosie adds regarding whether or not those songs will be released. “We just basically gonna mass produce the streets with Boosie music. It’s just, we gotta get this album. The mixtape, the album, then let’s blast this game.”
Discussing his current plan with music and his upcoming album, Boosie Badazz says he’s still trying to figure everything out due to numerous setbacks.

“Man, this music stuff crazy, man,” he says. “I felt like I already had the albums, but when it comes down to paperwork a lot of dudes play games with beats, and whatever. There be a lot of things going on with the music that make it get set back. Right now I’m at a point where I was gonna do a double disc, but now I’m gonna put 20 on a single disc and 26 on iTunes. So you know, I’m hustlin’, man. [Laughs] You gotta go get the other ones. So that’s the plan right now.”
Detailing his relationship with friend and long-time collaborator Webbie, Boosie Badazz says the pair have been working together since they were teenagers.
