  • The one and only 21 Savage sits down with Shannon Sharpe in this episode of Club Shay Shay, and it's a rollercoaster of realness with the Atlanta rapper. 21 goes into what it was like being born in London and growing up in Atlanta, exposing the trials and tribulations that eventually led to him becoming a global music superstar. Then, 21 Savage spares no details as he shares the chilling story of surviving six gunshot wounds and witnessing his friend's murder. The harsh realities of the rap game aren’t exclusive to 21’s experiences as he delves into the death of Memphis’ Yo Gotti’s brother. Then, The Saint Laurent Don delves into the financial side of the industry, comparing rap money to NFL earnings and shedding light on the frugality of T.I., who almost gave 21 a million dollars but didn’t, which turned out to be a blessing in the long run. But the buck doesn’t stop there, as 21 responds to Snoop Dogg's streaming insights and shares that there is good money to be made from streaming, which has compelled him to consider selling his catalog as Future did. 21 Savage covers it all; from claiming the title of the best rapper in his XXL Freshman Class, to giving his picks for the Mt. Rushmore of R&B artists and the best rappers from Atlanta, and expressing his willingness to drop a collab album with J. Cole. It's a candid, no-filter conversation that gives fans an unfiltered glimpse into the life and opinions of the Atlanta rap legend.

    21 was trying to fight back tears, you could hear it in his voice . Real talk, the convos about his dad triggered him deep and I'm glad Shannon was able to allow him to be vulnerable and guide him through the conversation from an elder's perspective and still allow him to feel through it. THIS is community and this is BEAUTIFUL. Big up Shannon and 21 Savage.

He has lots of wisdom for someone so young because he’s faced so many challenges. Much love to him and his fam.

This interview stripped away the stardom, fame, and celebrity of 21 and left us with a humble and very vulnerable relatable man that I didn't know existed. IMO these interviews will do more to grow an artist's fanbase than any record they drop. 21 gained me as a fan today. To Shannon aka Unc, Bro your platform is golden.
