Outlining his intentions with the collective, N.O.R.E. says it’s important for him to create a new legacy as he doesn’t want to live off of anything from his past.

“To be 100 percent real with you, I’m just [at] a point in my life where I don’t want to live off anything old,” N.O.R.E. says. “Anything old doesn’t pay my bills now. So of course I wanna promote C-N-N and we gon’ go out and have fun and do the European tour and the North East tour or whatever but I just know how important it is for me to lead a new legacy with the Good Belt Gang. [With] Sanogram, City Boy Dee, [D Tweez 4 Da Cheese], Money Ming, Black Boy Cocca [and] Yung Reallie. I just really know that if one of these guy’s careers pop off, it’s gonna give me another 10 years. Now I don’t wanna be behind this mic for another 10 years.

“I want them to understand that this is a business,” N.O.R.E. adds. “No matter how far you get, this is a business so take it as such.”

In October of last year, N.O.R.E. said his venture with the Good Belt Gang was natural progression for him.
