7:17Now Playing40 Cal reflected on his Battle Rap origins in this clip from his exclusive interview with VladTV Battle Rap Journalist Michael Hughes.
40 recalled taking rap seriously in his early 20s, and having an off-camera battle vs. Jae Millz where he allegedly "killed him." He then spoke on his time battling in Fight Klub after coming home from being incarcerated, and how he used the money made off of battling to pay his bills.
40 compared the style in which battles were conducted back then to how they are matched up now. In the Fight Klub era, battlers were paid based off of the bets made on battles, and only the winner received a payment. Even though there was far less money put into Battle Rap back then, 40 claims to have still made thousands off of bets sometimes. He believes that the battlers are "spoiled" these days with the amount of preparation time they are given for their battles, but he respects it so that each competitor could have the chance to perform at their very best.
