Mims On The TRAGIC Story Of How "This Is Why I'm Hot" Cost Him MILLIONS!

[@kdeezo326]

I was overseas in Guam when that joint dropped and they would play it to death in the dance clubs. It was definitely a banger💯

[@Runitup84]

Hafa dai

[@yardleyhbk]

The song went #1 in billboard 200. He held it down for New York.

[@aryahe]

Great interview... I remember walking into a club outside of Chicago. It was a guy behind us and me and my man was drunk Callin him a This is why I’m hot lookin a$$ n*gga. A short time after the DJ got on the mic and was like Mims in da building. He rocked it... we was really talkin to him and didn’t know it... lol true story...

Lol

[@mrmarkus7964]

A lot of songs was popping off BET, 106 & Park and The radio stations and The Box and Rap City along with sometimes Showtime at the Apollo and Soul Train. We rarely fk'd with KZbin.

[@rikers263]

I met Mimms at summer jam one year we had a mutual friend and even there he was telling me how his investments have made him 10 fold what he made from music

[@iamdavid420]

I once seen him perform at a free concert. He did that song 4 times.

Mims blew up hella quick. Everyone was listening to his jams. That one album was so fire 🔥. Music is My Savior 💯💯 "I can make a Mil saying nothing on the track " Man predicted the future. SoundCloud rappers got rich spitting out straight trash.

[@majinbuu8972]

He didn't predict anything lmfao he was speaking on himself

[@RussellMills1877]

You can tell that Mims is a smart man who learned from trial and error and that first album he put out was fire and slept on at the same time because it should have sold more units overall. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017

[@capcap2935]

MIRACLE FOOD WTF I AINT PUTTING NO RANDOM SHIT IN MY BODY LOL

[@jackieson35]

Mims 💯💯💯

[@MPPharaoh]

I think what might’ve ended his career is when he said on this is why I’m hot “I can make a million saying nothing on the track”. Jay Z for some God awful reason had a big problem with that line. He was in a interview just bitching about that line. MIMS ain’t steal it or nothing. But Jay was mad. To this day I still wanna know what that shit was about.

[@TheRealSleepSkee]

I should be the first independent artist you guys interview😎

[@freonmanson5374]

He got his times confused yo Master P was popn earlier than 99. Rt Aint nobody fuck with Mims.

[@dougroyce5784]

Not on the east coast. Before 99 most wasn’t up on that.

[@justmy5984]

Maybe he made an honest mistake maybe he didn’t hear about Master p until then. You niggas can find a way to say some negative shit no matter what damn🤦🏽‍♂️

Ppl don't seem to understand that as much a mecca nyc is socially n financially its hip hop sound always been more underground then commercialized radio friendly mainstream.That's basically why the whole tri state as a region been stagnated over the last 20 years cuz they been cut off and been forced to conform or stay underground to a degree

If MIMS went back to DJing after his record blew, he would still be gettin' money out of the industry.💰

[@seankilliano5781]

and now he is getting money from the Tech world with less BS from the music industry ....i will say he made a clever choice

How many hits you make just curious?

[@lonniehenry1657]

He's right about the music industry. If you're not business savvy when you first start out they're coming for your money like wolves. He's never had another hit cause the record labels blackball you once you go against them.

[@510fitness3]

He had one hot song. Really just the hook and beat was good. And the video made it catchy.. other than that. He was a one hit wonder. Just like that song. Party like a rock star 😂😂😂

[@lonblaze2120]

That song was alright.

[@mrjames851]

is it tragic when you have the choice to use a sample or not? Sounds like he was overcompensating for making a basic south song by incorporating samples into and suffered for it

[@aarondukes5473]

THE REMIX WAS WAY BETTER, AND MIMS IS A WACK RAPPER.

And Master P aint own No Limit. He coulda ate 4 life off dat but he took da money up front. Now he started his own label New No Limit
