Maino On Why He Left Atlantic Records, Learning How To Rap In Solitary Confinement & More

[@jimjon7369]

People are talking about him in the comments. I spent a few calendars locked up and I came home to succeed. This man spent 23 hrs a day in a box. Coming home is not promised. You can only understand if you have been locked up. Any success this man have accomplished is amazing. You have people that have been free and never even reach the success he has obtained. I'm not saying he is a great rapper. .but his drive and his story of redemption is amazing.

[@eatmybooty6362]

Jim Jon well that buck 50 cross his face says other wise.🤔 my brother told me a razor across the face in prison means your either soneones piece of ass or a snitch or both.just saying he has a good story but to me that's all it is,is a story.

[@eatmybooty6362]

chizplayaz prison cuts are not the same smh keep on telling urself that one.i have to many brothers to not know better.

[@StayAlert_StayAlive]

Eatmy Booty A razor cut in prison just means u got caught lacking or possibly jumped. I've been to prison twice. But I heard he got that cut in the streets.

[@shenee5]

Jim Jon right ✌

[@OGTKCole]

Jim Jon Exactly!! I was in the Feds for 7 years and spent 6 years of that in the box. All I did was study and devise a plan to succeed when I get out. #FactsOnly

[@10malie]

At this point I've seen Maino more than my pops 😩

[@camsmith87]

[@breeward1886]

[@CandidlyToni]

Bree Ward yup. That's that NA Rock bully mentality. lol that's what we do.

[@micfranco697]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oneTZYmDbJatiK8 lmao facts 💯💯💯💯

[@lilqueenhustler]

Everybody needs to go watch the Kalief browder story on Netflix .. you will defiantly shed a tear and have a different outlook on the system because of it .

[@thandizohorea1267]

lilqueenhustler yes the documentary really opened my eyes to the American judicial system. That and the 13th.

[@nettycharice6254]

Gotta respect maino, work and hustle

[@eatmybooty6362]

netty charice 😂

[@oshiablackirish7749]

I've always liked Maino glad he's coming back out, I'm the type of fan that no matter how long you've been inactive "actor, singer, rapper" I'm here for the comeback this new crap ain't for me anyhow...

[@fatou8011]

funny you say that when he hasnt been inactive hes been dropping shit

[@jeanfoley2058]

[@HeroH1914]

"I was the go to guy... Chicks weren't even broken up... I've been in a lot of kitchens" Savage! LOL

[@akhenatenra2841]

[@tadd8210]

[@rtyujih]

Maino Angela Rye Noreaga give the BEST consistent interviews

[@kenny2110]

rtyujih Angela rye interviews weak now

[@DAVIDTORRESANI]

Rtyujih... Agreed.. Angela Rye is sooooo nice. Beautiful women in & out.

[@ksjoris01]

The Best Way to Learn how to rap or do anything artistic is by teaching yourself... when you learn from others you adopt too much of their style, and dont get to develop your own as you progress.

[@intellectualblackking162]

The Illuminati word? I always feel like those with mentors in music have a huge advantage over self learners. But I feel you.

[@dc_amp8843]

Everyone needs some direction

[@charlesharris4426]

Your obviously not an artist. Every artist needs inspiration and guidance of some sort

[@brandonmosley3603]

You gotta have the passion and drive to want to be a student of it, study it like crazy, and grind. Find people to help you along the way, if they aint with you they in the way.

[@mariafeodorovna4487]

On the same hand people need to learn to humble themselves and accept help when they need it. There's no shame in needing help sometimes

[@isaiahkirksey5150]

I love this interview. He so real and i respect that. I love supporting artist that are authentic.

[@MrWorldfamous23]

Dude Maino brought with him probably thinking,"man I could have just stayed my ass in the car and waited on him to get finished." 😂😂😂😂 ( while listening to Hot 97 LMAO )

[@dstatik3378]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@soberryder100]

I downloaded that party and pain on tidal . I worked out to that joint this morning it’s a good body of work!! Maino didn’t disappoint he came through!!! 💯✔️

[@deejay7651]

First album was classic MAINO my favourite track to this day is FLOATING 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@MultiZachary23]

One of the few rappers I met and the only one I talked to personally. Good dude to talk to!✊🏽

[@see5597]

That's why you never leave one situation for the other situation. No matter what it is. If you're going to leave, leave because you're just leaving, but don't ever do it with an underhanded intention. God knows all, and sees all.😒😏😌😆

[@GrandLineCharlie]

Scorpio Durant I agree to an extent. I could see if he left the situation and had the other situation set in stone, but he didn't. It's like leaving a job in promise that you would get another job, but the job decided not to hire you. Get the other job first, then leave. Sign that dotted line

[@HaydenHayder]

Maino is so underrated. He's one of my all time favourite rappers.

[@lifestraight]

Flashy Foreign Patek lmao right? Lol

[@drebruhamlincoln7086]

[@theabstract4936]

Maino didn’t leave Atlantic Records, they dropped him.

[@harlemjordan]

My guyyy Mainooo LETS GOO

[@Kaylawayla_8]

“Pain comes from the same place power comes from”

[@a.b.kelley5163]

maino gave real authentic answers. never fabricates shit just keeps it 100

[@bundythe8th279]

I got a cool story about maino he’s one of the realest rapper and i respect him for that

[@Gheeze23]

FRED BUNDY SO TELL IT?

[@IAMJUDAH144]

I am glad my guy Maino still doing he's thing and very much relevant

[@thablackkat9905]

That Maino & Murda Yellow Tape mixtape is STILL the hardest joint out. The only mixtape that comes close to it as of late is The Kanan Tape by 50 Cent.

[@CouchTfilms]

That’s not dude Tupac shot in Juice?

[@goodbrothersteve]

Raheem

[@fortheculture1097]

Nah but he shot pac in all eyez on me movie lol

[@robinlue2008]

Couch Tomato no. The actor who played Raheem is his older brother hence the resemblance.

[@mmbeas]

robinlue2008 lies

[@lexxalex5562]

Couch Tomato its the dude who shot 2Pac during the robbery in the movie All Eyez On Me... You got it backwards....

[@CierraSalleyHinds]

Maino droppin some serious jewels here! I'm motivated to do me!

[@michaelbrown6960]

Great interview

[@c.things1624]

Salute Maino always keeps it 100... Rumours is a classic I heard Suge smack game you gotta love that line....

[@mesutozil9486]

That "No fucks to give" track on his album is fireee 🔥🔥🔥

[@MicWars]

Always felt he look like a tougher version of the light skin nigga in juice, raheem.

[@mmtrevor]

StillShiningTV he does tho lol

[@l.w.1314]

Because Raheem in Juice is Maino's biological brother in real life, so naturally siblings tend to look similar...... 😑

[@lifestraight]

L.W. They are not biological brothers in real life. They are not even related. Furthermore brothers don't always look alike. You played yourself trying to play someone else.

[@sinaloasaurez6339]

He looks like him

[@savalifetv]

You know it's going to be a good interview when you hear everybody laughing as soon after the intro 😁

[@MysteryUnfold]

I feel like every time he come to TBC, he tells the same story a different way.

[@mjlovahh12]

Kandii2Flyy well what else he gon talk about. Having a hit record ? 😭

[@eatmybooty6362]

Dee Jay oh burn 😂

[@f8c3themusic]

Kandii2Flyy That’s facts. Plus everyone up there is afraid of him so he gets a pass.

[@blacksharkswimmer3729]

Bc they ask him same question

[@micfranco697]

[@ashantiharris3484]

Maino is very underated in my opinion.. Like he said it takes a big corporate plan to help with your music.Good interview 🎧🎤🎶

[@VeleVlogs]

[@andrebundles1037]

Maino a real one 💯💯💯 #SssquadUp!

[@manug20dt3]

It's been bugging me who he looks like then it just came to me. Khalil Kain. He played Darnell for most of the seasons on Girlfriends, he was in Renaissance Man and I think Juice

[@S129]

manug20dt3 That's his brother.

[@lifestraight]

S Jones They not brothers tho

[@DameSmiff]

24:00 Ayyyoooooooo y’all lined my man up!!!!!!! Maino was not ready lol

[@TheRealest127]

If He sharpens Up just A Little more......... He could be a Real life, True Blue Motivational Speaker.

[@marinevet4131]

Shout to maino for being a “average” rapper at best who hasn’t drop nothing of quality in forever, yet still gets interviews. That’s real hustle.

[@Lashley1984]

[@mjlovahh12]

Deadass. I'm from NY and I'm just like who tf is this nigga

[@BTBeats]

Anybody else's jaw drop when he told that Birdman story? So Uncle Murda and Maino are the two dudes Ar-Ab was referring to during that vladTv interview.

[@timoaksproductions]

Hitman what did ar-ab say?

[@BTBeats]

Ar-ab said he talked to a couple dudes in New York who were given contracts by Birdman. They warned him that the contracts were horrible.

[@mmbeas]

Hitman oooouu good catch

[@MrWARBUCKS24]

Hitman yup Ar-Ab was talking about then and what's funny is Birdman started all that Maino and Murda talk after his incident at the breakfast club he was just trying to sign them for a lil NY security

[@brucekent9085]

Hitman how is his contract situation going? I know he signed to Cash Money, but I haven't heard any new music. Is he realizing he made a mistake yet?

[@MINDxWORM]

Watch this interview quick cos he'll be back on next week to talk about want new shoes he purchased

[@OfficialKyron]

You can learn alot by listening to maino

[@xxxxbigrich5752]

[@markquelsmith9326]

💯💯💯💯🔥💰💰maino

[@michaelbaskervilleii9813]

Maino and Lore'l's heated argument on Lip Service was hilarious lol

[@LaCheleWallace]

This is a great interview, TBC. Whenever I see a Maino interview, I say *oh, here we go...* This time around, I enjoyed the conversation. He's so right, all of this stuff takes money. And it ain't no nickles & dimes now. The average Joe doesn't know that it takes hundreds of thousands of dollars to get one record poppin'. Being independent, there is no support whatsoever. Partnerships are nice, but you still have to come outta pocket regardless. You are literally paying for every move you make whether it's touring, videos, etcetera. Let's face it, these artists ain't got that kinda money to be toyin' around with. I also learned that it takes money to keep physical copies of cd's in stores (Walmart, etcetera).

[@livinggreatdonthate8621]

Maino is a real one point blank period

[@1162hunter]

His new mixtape party and pain is 🔥 🔥 his mixtape KOB 3 and the mixtape with uncle murda were 🔥 too
