21 Savage Makes A Knife & Explains How ‘Issa Album’ Came Together | IRL

Atlanta rapper 21 Savage recently dropped his debut album, Issa Album, with just a few weeks' notice. Coming off the breakout success of his Metro Boomin collaborative project Savage Mode, he’s looking to reach even greater heights with his proper solo debut. He linked up with Genius' own Rob Markman at Sword and the Stone in Los Angeles to talk about his relationship with Sonny Digital, his experiences growing up in Atlanta, and his opinions on what really constitutes trap music.

Deshawn Mendes I've listened to his music and he's honestly either bi polar as shit or he's acting. A good amount of his songs are just hyped up and another is just trying to sound as if it's supposed to be a sad song, if you listen to the lyrics on those songs it doesn't make sense.

This is like a mini biography of 21. Gives me a different perspective to 21 and his life before the fame and what motivated him to do more than stay on the block and become another statistic. His comment on trying to motivate other youth that is, or was, in his position is actually touching as well. I have a lot of friends that need(ed) that sort of motivation/inspiration from someone like 21 that's actually been through the worst case scenarios in the hood. It's never too late to leave the block, unless it's in a coffin. P.S. Genius, keep doing more dope shit like this. Really enjoyed these sort of in depth, sort of, mini documentaries of an artist's life and inspiration. Really does do a lot of good for perspective and insight to all. Much love ya'll.

[@mlungisidlamini5543]

When he says pay for that when you killed someone he talking about spiritual cleansing. Damn my boyi spiritual. I'm so happy for him. I live in South Africa and we still do that. Praying to the creator and honouring our ancestors. Sir Savage The 21st

[@PopGoesTheWiz]

Mlungisi Dlamini how do you go about that...like how do you actually do it...if you don’t wanna publicly talk about it i could give you my ig or Twitter and you could tell me in the dm

[@khanyisanigee8913]

Fuck that shit

[@sankofax8082]

I am part Yoruba from West Africa. i was shook when i heard 21 talking about Ifa. never judge someone by their appearance, he has a sound intellect and is pretty grounded.

[@nathan-in9qf]

he didn't talk about how he would respect his ancestors when he would shoot someone because it's private. could you give us an idea of how people associated with ifa would respect his ancestors?

[@floridafreak79]

watch his other interviews from breakfastclub thenyou will rlyy understand him

[@ShokoFlow]

La Flame

[@3hreejay242]

I respect when savage said just like rock there’s different types of rap. That’s what older rap artists needs to understand. There should be no balance in the rap genre, rap is rap regardless how it sounds.

[@dakotaflannery3288]

One of the best interviews of a rapper to date

[@ty_goals2795]

At 1:01 when the song start what it's called

[@brianadjetey7008]

Sebastien O. U can judge a book by its cover. If u want to.

[@austism7305]

You can, but it says a lot about you.

[@datboybigrub]

Saalsversalser same with me lately ive been thinking on not judging and actually seeing what other people are like .rappers or not. I aint hating. We all gotto eat somehow wether we like their music or not some will.

[@hobbylobby3556]

Saalsversalser Honestly ! At first I thought he was an alien !

[@yungbasa1937]

Really good interview Genius. I feel like this guy is so misunderstood because he was brought under the same light as Lil Uzi & Desiigner on the XXL Mag. But people really do not know what this young man went through in his life, and I think he is fully out of shy mode and is really showing is striving to introduce his backstory while still keeping the same persona. Real street nigga. #SlaughterGang 🗡

[@DiegoChulo69]

He looks so happy when talking about crushing heads 5:20

[@jocelynshaw7612]

He's intelligent as fuck. People sleeping on his mind.

[@wsly007]

[@mariusman3671]

How can you have someone’s back if they don’t even know you?

[@IAmTorrva]

You dont have shit. You're a nobody to him

8:00 Nigga 21 just hit everybody with the realest shit from 2017

[@Wh0reshoe]

Big BREAD the fact you think that's the realist shit of 2017 is crazy

[@slrroute]

Big BREAD It make sense 💯👌🏾.

[@wyonthebeat]

Awtizum • its not the realist but it real

[@metamorphosisx6641]

Big BREAD Been saying that for a minute, glad 21 said it.

[@metamorphosisx6641]

I'm so proud of 21 savage seeing how intelligent he is and smart and humble

[@D4K1D123]

Issa life lesson 🌚

[@flvida2249]

How can you hate on this guy? I mean I get why some people may not vibe to his music, but damn at least respect this man especially with everything he's been through.💯

[@yaboi4477]

Juan Carballo It's called surviving in the hood and creating something positive from it you dumb ass

[@aminasn991]

Juan Carballo he's a product f his environment and he's got out of it. He says that it was terrible for him and his family 😑

[@cripplingdebt8984]

Only killers I'll respect is a soldier. still can't hate him, though

[@PdaRealest]

Isaac Vidaurry real shitt mhn i respect him. but who knws wth he be doin after the camera😂😂?? bdw am nah hating. but i still fuck with him thoo💪🔥🔥💓

[@poodah.1k50]

Isaac Vidaurry 💯💯

[@sulltan2014]

21 savage I respect you ✊🏼❤

[@shmoeg]

When he was talking about respecting the different types of music, I could only relate now. I used to think mumble rap was shit, but as it started to dilute into my life, it starts to hit a little different. Music is not for everyone, but that is what is so cool about having variety.

[@orpheus1663]

Dam this is one of the most interesting interviews I've seen...I didn't know 21 had so many layers 😂😂😂

[@izrealquintana1903]

Dildo_Mccoont he's like an ogre

[@tachycardiacarrest]

[@mfwhom5214]

Seems humble. Never listened to him though.

[@symeresheart6728]

MF Whom ? He is a really good artist

[@raksax20]

Stinky butt fuck you

[@tiheenmatthews8855]

Stinky butt if his music is trash then why tf u watching this 🤔

[@Skye-lk1rq]

Stinky butt shut up bitch you're probably white so don't say nigga before we have a problem

[@bluesagedemon1203]

Stinky butt aye man that isn't just offensive to him but that's offensive to me."niggas" ain't filthy and just cause we ain't raised with the privelage to do and get whatever we want don't make us niggas. at least we gotta work for what we get cause obviously if you're that disrespectful then you need to meet some "niggas" or move to a "nigga" neighborhood and find out how hard it is to come up compared to a predominately white neighborhood.

[@jerseyboy7590]

He's the most humble savage I've ever seen.

[@marlinwasp2551]

I don't understand why people hate this guy so much he's so genuine and natural.

[@yepyep2962]

This guy is smart.

[@brunobellocci]

he has been through a lot... struggles made him wise

[@HauntedHarmonics]

EzandRach .Campos - He actually is smart tho, dude took an IQ test and tested pretty far above average. Hes not a genius or anything, and not very well educated. But hes definitely smart. Hes got another video on youtube talking all bout how to properly invest your money and shit. Talks about how to not go broke as a rapper after your popularity fades by investing in bonds, stocks, diversifying your portfolio, etc. The man is way more intelligent than most people give him credit for, forsure

[@2rich2pimp56]

21 is actually pretty smart

[@i2QWERT4U]

street smart*

[@Fsoricko]

What makes you think rappers can't be?

[@alessio8675]

look at desiigner and u have the answer

[@AWG59]

Do you actually listen to Venom? Or are you just using the it as your PP because you think it's cool?

[@DAMIXCLAN]

21 said some real ass shit about music

[@christianh9824]

literally my favorite rapper. people don’t see deep enough into him, he’s underrated

[@olgamoncado8835]

genius are the only people who soley care about these artist, salute!

[@aviationcompilation455]

Wow, this was really awesome. I already liked 21 but I didn't know how real he actually keeps it.

[@benjaminwelkens8118]

Bruh I never thought I'd hear 21 speak facts like this

[@335iGuy]

Wow this is 6 years old already, time is truly flying by.
