You continue to rep the hometown while garnering national attention. Tell us about how you landed that gig to throw the first pitch for the Cardinals game this Saturday.
Juan Pierre, who plays for the Marlins, is a good friend of mine. He started out just as what you would call a "fan" of my music, and he reached out to me in 2011 through a mutual friend and invited me to come to Miami. I went down there, and we did a community outreach with the YMCA in the hood. After that, we clicked up. So when the Marlins were scheduled to do a "Beast Mode Day" (Juan Pierre's organization), it was a no-brainer for me to be a part. The craziest thing for me is that the Marlins are bringing me down to do the game and throw out the first pitch, but I have to throw it out against my Cardinals! I can't lie I was crushed at first, and Juan knew when he called that I would have a hard time doing it, but at the end of the day this is my job, and because of these jobs and people like the Marlins, I'm able to continue to give back to our city. It's going to be funny putting on that jersey though and hat, though. I rep the Cardinals everywhere I go! I'm just hoping and praying that the ball gets to the plate.
Can you tell us more about the Christian hip-hop and rock concert that follows the game on Saturday?
The concert after the game should be dope. My boy Json will be there and another group named FFH. The concert starts immediately after the game and they have tickets available online. I'll let you all know how everything goes!
