Rapper Young Chris of State Property sat down for his first-ever VladTV interview, and he started off speaking to Shawn Prez about being part of hip-hop history alongside fellow Philly rapper Freeway.

During the conversation, Young Chris spoke about his friendship with Neef Buck, which goes back to childhood, and Chris revealed that Neef got him into rapping.

[@bighutch3043]

As a near 50yr old, I love jay been an influence on my life since 94/95, its like the hustle life we lived in high school he captured it on Reasonable doubt & the streets is watching album, but when he took Young CRIS's flow, he literally elevated as an artist, you can hear cris cadence in.. the blueprint, Unfinished Business ( best of both worlds 2 ), blueprint 2, black album, kingdom come & American gangster < was my favorite jayz album ) the blue print 3, I still have all JayZ's CD's & listen too them faithfully too this day on my PS4, Cris Should've been a bigger artist, he still is a flame spitter too this day👑🎯 Miss the Rocafella Days🕊🍾😇💯✌

[@jacobrobinson9270]

Most underrated rapper ever!!

[@johnnieridley1987]

This was a phenomenal interview. You guys both did a great Job. I respect how much knowledge you had already coming to the table. I love how you're able to ask tough questions and not sound like an instigator doing it. The only questions you missed I wanted asked was ...what did it feel like when 50 hit the scene. Recall the time Jay z put you guys on notice about 50 coming. And address the rumors about Jay-Z biting your style. It was said Jay-Z was stealing your cadence, and swag...speak to that!!! Other wise this interview was ON POINT 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@twogzup293]

He’s admitted that Jay took from his style , his answer was “steal sharpens steal “ they were a crew they all borrowed from each other But J definitely took from the Homie Young Chris I always wondered if him and Juelz battled

[@t4y.o_]

Chris was smooth acting like he didn’t hear that Neef diss towards O 😂😂😂

[@Gjoshfreeman]

That picture with him and Rihanna 😮looks real asf😂😂

[@nevertakethejab9389]

WE KNOW WHO PUT HIM ON THE SHELF AND EVEN STOLE HIS FLOW 👀 🐪

[@weezyg5084]

Dam him and Neef should of been came back out and drop plenty of music unless I miss it. They go hard in the paint and I'm from the south whole State Property!!!

[@Pudgep215]

[@jamescunningham7251]

Chris top 5 outta his bracket. Made the so called greatest at tha time switch his style and soughta take his style. Influence is so recognizable. Hov took his flow.

[@KinggOfHearts]

Real Dude.. I was just with him the other day.. And he was nothin but Humble and Positive! New Music Video Comming Soon!!!

[@laboriousray1777]

Man..when I first heard young Chris I was expecting him the be bigger than everyone but jay ye and 50

[@ceobillionaireclothing7438]

This could have been a much better interview. Nothing personal but the interviewer is boring. A lot of questions were left out. Its a very basic amateur interview and i wasnt captivated. What a waste unfortunately. The vibe was very slow and i even lost interest. The sequence of questions is all over the place. Was really looking forward to this. Damn

[@mrpar508]

I don’t understand why It took damn near the whole interview for him to get into Neef! He’s asking constantly about Beans & Jay…, and I’m sitting here wondering when he gonna go in depth about his rhyme partner only to give Y.G. only a couple of questions and move on to something else. I was waiting to hear how their relationship is. Do they still keep up; and some other things.

[@jordan92208]

Being from Philadelphia I been following the young gunz since day 1 still some of the sickest artist I ever heard.

[@Boosh43]

I remember when I meet this guy down broad n hunting park at the Chinese store..like 8 years ago...Tough luv toughest rap album from philly in my opinion
