"Growing Up In The 90's Was Too Real For Me, I Got My 1st Pack In The 7th Grade From A Close Friend Who I Can't Disclose His Name"... Ever Since Then Skippa Da' Boss Was Addicted To Money !!! "From Middle School Thru High School I Was Hustlin, Im Not Boasting The Glamour Of It, It's Just What I Knew. I'd Drop Off Packs To My Team & Pick Up The Cash In School Every Period. I Became A Boss Cause I Couldn't Be On The Radar Known As A Dealer; I Was Playing Football & Where Im From They Aint Let Known Dealers Play Sports So I Had To Be A Boss. In High School We In Class Counting Stacks While The Teacher Giving Lessons lol, They Made $30,000 - $40,000 A Year While We Make That In A Month... At 17 You Dig !!!"

It Was All Fun & Games Until Skippa Da' Boss Friends & Associates Started Getting Shot & Locked Up. "I Never Thought That Getting This Money Would Be The Death Of Me, But I Knew The Game Don't Last 4eva... I Really Just Wanted To Play Football & Get Out The Hood Cause Niggaz Was Getting Shot & Locked Up Left & Right. My Niggas Aint Wanna Leave The Hood Though."

Skippa Da' Boss Left Pittsburgh After HighSchool And Enrolled In A Junior College Out Scranton Pa On A Football Scholarship & Linked Up Wit Some NYC Playas From The Bronx. "My Teammates Were All Gangstas From Jersey & NYC... It Was Like Being In The Hood All Over Again Except Our Reps From Home Didn't Mean Shit To Nobody... So I Had To Let Niggas Know Who Da' Boss Was !!! My Right Hand Man Was This Spanish Cat Name Frankie From The Bronx, He Was A Natural Born Hustla & Had A Major Connect In Spanish Harlem & All The Strippers On Deck. We Was Making Trips Every Weekend To NYC & Making Stops In Philly, DC, Va & Delaware. Va Was All Love Though That Market Is A Cash Cow For Hustlas... I Fell In Love With Va !!!"

Everything Was Going Great For Skippa Da Boss & Frankie Until One Day Frankie Violated The Code & Got High... "That Day I'll Never Forget... I Had A Feeling He Was High Cause He Was Alil Too Cocky. He Parked In A Club Lot Across From My Crib Out Scranton PA That Was A Mafia Club. A Mob Boss Walked Out As We Walked Up My Steps & Started Yelling At Frankie To Move His Mutha Fuckin' Car... Frankie Disrespected The Mob Capo And Started Mouthing Off Back To Him Then Walked Into My House. I Walked Down The Steps And Apologized To This Capo On Behalf Of Frankie & Said I'll Move The Car It Was Just A Long Night. This Capo Shook My Hand & Said He Liked Me But My Boy Was Cut Grass... He Gave Me A Look I'd Never Seen In My Life !!!"

It Was Close To Semesters End & Skippa Da' Boss Was Planning On Going D1 At Norfolk State University... " I Told My Boys I Was Out In A Few Weeks & They Started Talking Shit... We Was Getting So Much Money Together That If I Left They Thought It Would Fall Apart. I Wanted To Play D1 Football And The Opportunity Came My Way, Plus We Was Moving Packs In Va So I Saw The Opportunity To Expand Our Operation. 2 Days Prior To Me Moving To Va I Picked Up A Few Of Our Strippers From The Club And Headed To My House. Frankies Car Was Out Front But He Wasnt In It, And The Girls Tried Calling Him For Hours But He Didnt Pick Up... It Was Odd !!! The Next Day I Was Packing My Ride To Move Down Va, And The Mob Capo Came Over To Me & Said He Overheard Us Talking And Said To Look Up a Guy Name Vito In Va. He Handed Me A Phone That Had Only Two Numbers In It... His & Vitos !!! He Handed Me A Duffle Bag & Told Me The Grass Was Cut, Patted Me On The Back & Walked Off."

When Skippa Da' Boss Got To Va It Was Better Than He Expected Until A Day Came That Shattered His Dream. "I Took That Duffle Bag And Did What I Do, Hit Up Vito & He Introduced Me To My Territory. I Moved In Silence Cause I Was Playing Football. As Soon As I Stepped On Campus I Was The Man, Everyone Just Called Me "Pittsburgh"... I Met A Bad Bitch And She Rode Wit Da' Boss... Everything Was Going Good & I Was Looking For My NFL Combine Letters To Come Soon When I Injured My Wrist One Night At The Club When This Lame Tried To Run Up On Da' Boss While I Was Poppin Bottles Wit My Bitch!!! I Looked At Football As A Way Out But With My Injury I Said Fuck It Imma Do This Rap Shit & I Hit Mia (Miami)."

People Said A Yo Hak What You Gonna Do If You Don't Make It In This Rap Shit ? "I Tell Em, I Dont Give A Fuck If I Sell 1 Or 1 Million Cause Nigga Im Good... Shit I'll Just Hit Tha Block And Slang Dat Good Or Just Grab Me A Bitch And Slang Dat Wood... A Hood Fel-La Mutha Fucka' Im All Hood... Like One Of Them All-Stars Up In The Leauge...
