00:00Here with Joey Badass at R&B Hip-Hop Power Players 2024.
00:03You're being honored with the Impact Award. What does an honor like that mean to you?
00:08I mean listen it means a lot. This is my first time being honored with any award
00:12so that goes a long way for me personally. Like it feels good to be acknowledged.
00:16It's a sense of reassurement and just uh confirmation that I'm doing what I'm
00:20supposed to be doing so honored to be here. Shout out to Billboard.
00:24Absolutely. Now we are at Hip-Hop Power Players so for me just describe hip-hop in one word.
00:32Expression.
00:35Why expression?
00:37Man you told me to define it in one word.
00:38And I'm telling you to define it with some more words.
00:41Asking me answering the question with a question.
00:45Expression because to me that's what hip-hop is. It's like how you feel you know what I'm saying
00:51and hip-hop originally started to give the voiceless a voice so that's that's why it's
00:57expression. For sure for sure. We also unfortunately lost a very very very cherished member of the hip-hop
01:03community today Rich Homie Quan. Wanted to know if you had any words to share in support of him
01:07and his family right now. Did a lot of shit just to live this here lifestyle. Yeah rest in peace
01:15Rich Homie. Thank you so much for that. Have a great night man. Congratulations again.
