People comparing you to Lil Wayne, I’m sure you get that a lot. How do you respond to that?

Lil Wayne compares me to Lil Wayne. To some people that have actually seen the transformation of Lil Twist from a mohawk, to the rap, now I have these dreadlock — throughout all those stages, my brother was always my biggest influence. Wayne has always been my biggest influence due to the fact that my dad got 75 years to life in prison. Once Wayne found that out, when I was 13/14, he really took me under his wing. He would always call me his son, but I was so close in age to him, that I felt funny calling him “Pops,” so I would always call him “Big Bro.” But now, I kinda call him both because that’s the life he lives.
