Lyfe Jennings recently paid a visit to Power 105.1 to discuss his upcoming reality show, his new album and the domestic dispute that earned him a two-year prison sentence.
On going back to prison after a dispute with his baby mama:
“I been home like a year now man. Yeah, I did all that [kicked down the door and fired gunshots]. I did all of that sh**, that’s just what it was. I was all of that [high and drunk]. Nah, I wasn’t jealous. People put it out there like that, but nah, females play games about your kids and I don’t really play about mine. I was in my feelings about my kids at that time and it happened.”
On his beef with Raheem Devaughn:
“I watched [his interview with y’all] and I thought it was cute… real licorice like. I don’t know, I’m just a different kind of dude from how he portrayed it. I guess it’s cool for his fans. You gotta feed your fans what they think that you are. For me, it was a really wack situation. The guy got upset because I named him in a song. It said cats that I respect, but the cat was emotional about it… All the talk is cool. We’ll address it though.”
On his reality show:
“A couple of my children’s mothers… Yes [I’m doing a reality show with all of them together]. I think they took Shawty Lo’s the wrong way.”
“We just finished doing some clips, we got a lot of interest on it though. We don’t need they money like that though. You’re not going to make a fool of my family. It’s like you selling your privacy, cats making you look crazy on TV. I ain’t ’bout to do that.”
On his beef with K.Michelle:
“Yeah, she refused to go on before me. I guess in her world, she felt like she was a bigger star than me. She said a lot of things too.”
On men getting angry over his song “Statistics:”
“Cats always mad, man. I got daughters and I think like in my music, I always try to talk about my best side. I want my little girl to know how cats are gonna try to like, play her. If you get mad at that, what can I say?”
On his industry friends:
“I think Anthony Hamilton is a friend. Musiq Soulchild is friend. Even that young cat Bobby V, that’s a friend man.”
