I just try to give my best and that’s all I can do.” She added: “Since I had my son, I’m a little more cautious now. Before I make music or appear in the role, I just think about when he turns 18, and people tell him who his mom is when he finally listens to my music. I just think of my legacy now because my son is my legacy. I just want him to feel proud about what his mama was doing, I would love that for him.”

Later in the interview, Kash Doll discussed her most recent project, Back On Dexter: A Gangsta Grillz Mixtape. The mixtape features Icewear Vezzo, Peezy, Payroll Giovanni, Sada Baby, YN Jay, Baby Money, and more. The 11-song effort arrived, earlier this month, ahead of her highly-anticipated sophomore album.
