Boldy James Explains How He’s Related To Snoop Dogg

Finally, after years of wondering, we now know why Boldy James is one of the best rappers out right now. Well, this isn’t really the reason, because being related to Snoop Dogg will never make you as skilled or vivid of a lyricist as the Detroit native is. However, it’s still a really interesting and curious connection that Bo revealed during a recent interview with Action Entertainment. When asked whether he and the West Coast legend are cousins, he didn’t specify their relation, but gave credence to their bond.

“I’ve always [know] that Snoop’s people was from Detroit,” Boldy James explained. “He’s got family in Detroit. My mom, my grandma, my grandpops, their family is the only Broaduses I’ve ever known besides, you know, Snoop and his family. My people used to always tell me that we was related to them even before I was doing music. Now that I do music, a lot of people tell me- in the ‘Speed Demon’ video with me and Alchemist, they tell me, with that Supreme jersey I had on, I looked like Snoop in ‘Gin and Juice.’

Boldy James Can Call Snoop Dogg His Family

“I don’t see the similarities a lot, but I get it,” Boldy James continued. “I’m skinny, you know what I mean? The way I play my hat, sometimes I dress, the angles I make be similar. But yeah, it’s word from my family that that’s really my family. I just never met him or we never bumped into each other to even kick it about it.” Moreover, a link-up between the 41-year-old and Snoop Dogg would be amazing to witness. As far-fetched as it sounds, even a collaboration between them would probably yield unique and potentially fiery results.

Meanwhile, the Fair Exchange, No Robbery MC also spoke on what Eminem’s support during his hospitalization meant to him. In addition, he touched on a Nas collab produced by Mac Miller that will probably never see the light of day, but felt mythical to even speak on. He’s an incredibly interesting, talented, and above all humble artist, and whether or not he’s Snoop’s cousin, he still feels like a true offspring of the game.

Overall, Perico has 26 shows planned. The finale will take place before the summer begins, on June 4th at the Music Box in San Diego. While fans are excited enough about seeing the 34-year-old, he’s also bringing Rucci out on the road with him to entertain the masses.

Since “Action” made its debut yesterday, it’s already been streamed upwards of 35K times on Spotify alone. While celebrating his work’s arrival on Instagram, Perico promised his followers, “We bacc 2 bacc this year, no breaks.” If he stays true to his word, it’s sure to be a promising few months for Los Angeles rap fans.

The multi-talent previously broke out on the scene in 2016. His Shit Don’t Stop project helped him attract the attention of countless listeners and contemporaries. As a result of his hustle, he’s since worked with names like Freddie Gibbs, Nipsey Hussle, Mozzy, and Curren$y on various projects.

Every time I post, throwin’ up gangsta crip
Verses from the bible on my rib
Anything formed against me can’t live
