After dealing with childhood sexual abuse in the church at the hands of two different men, her life veered off into a path of destruction. After a car accident that left her in a coma, she realized she needed to straighten out. Part of her “straightening out” involved undertaking the daunting task of facing what happened to her and finally dealing with it. There are so many young girls and boys who are victims of childhood sexual abuse. The song was produced by EZ of Force One Seven, and was mixed by Papi Beatz from LPeezy Studios. Sexual abuse and molestation is NOT okay. Like this: Like Loading... Interview: @E40 Talk’s with @DjSteelTv and @BossLadyTv | via @Microphonebully.

He was brought up by a rapping mother who spit freestyle rhymes and wrote lyrics for other people. As a child growing up in a full house while deep into the streets, he decided he wanted to jump into the music industry. He first desired to be in the music industry because he always enjoyed listening to new music and watching the reaction of people dancing and having a good time to the music. The first track Money Bagz ever recorded was in his grandmother’s basement with a karaoke machine.
Who is Money Bagz, and where are you from? Money Bagz is an artist originally from Queens, NY residing in Northern Virginia How did you discover your musical talent? After recording my first song in the basement of my grandparents' house. Who has been your greatest inspiration musically and why? I'm inspired by any artist that started from nothing and i can watch work his or her way to the top; that's enough motivation for me. By Jerry Doby.

How did you discover your musical talent? Honestly, I was born into music, my whole family is involved. Who have been your greatest inspirations musically and why? I have so many...I can't really just give a certain name because it's a melting pot in my situation. What do you feel you offer the music industry that we don't already have in other performers? Originality! Have you encountered any problems in getting to this point in your career? *Frenchie chuckles* Of course it comes with the game, but all I do is pray, keep faith and positive things usually occurs in my career.

Hip-hop voices, beyond Kanye West and Jay-Z, are worth hearing. To judge by the media coverage this summer, only two hip-hop albums of note have been released. Both were recorded by multi-platinum multimillionaires raised on first- and second-generation hip-hop. As even your grandma could probably tell you, these albums, rolled out with the help of the sharpest marketing teams money can buy, are "Yeezus" by Kanye West and "Magna Carta Holy Grail" by Jay-Z, West's former label mate and "Watch the Throne" collaborator.
What elders perhaps don't know, though, is that beneath the self-described Watchers are a legion of MCs a decade or more younger upending a genre that the reigning monarchs claim to control. While the two self-proclaimed gods boast of their riches, brilliance, good fortune and influence throughout their new work as if speaking from a castle balcony overlooking the masses, down below voices are grumbling.
