Chapter 3: How did Cuzbra get involved in street life and crime?
Do you grow up in the hood or what?
Oh, I mean, you could say, you know, because the projects out there, is it too big? The city is not too big itself is a growing city now, you know, not comparable to Charlotte or Raleigh. But, you know, the hoods and the suburban areas are very, very close. And I stayed with my grandma for shit show as, you know, about eight, nine years old. And when she passed,
we went straight to the, we went straight to the bricks. So ever since then, you know, just growing up in a urban environment, you know, this is what, this is what it'll turn you into.
Really? Okay. So do you have both parents around or not?
Yeah. Hey, yeah. Okay.

Pops was a Rolling Stone. He died from cirrhosis of the liver because he was a heavy drinker. Oh, okay. Yeah, you know, you grow up in the 80s. You didn't know those drugs were bad for you. True, true. So he grew up in that time frame for sure. My mom was like a hippie. Okay. My mom was definitely a hippie.
Were they aware of what was going on in the streets?
My mama listened to Ludacris.
A lot of people listened to Ludacris when I was growing up too.
My mama listened to Ludacris.
It does get a little hot in here, right?

Chapter 5: How did Cuzbra transition from music to content creation?
I was kind of thinking that when I saw you come in with that.
I had to come in and style, then I'm about to get comfortable, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
My man, Adam, bro.
Yeah, you got to get comfortable with me. Okay, but so she listened to Ludacris, but they weren't involved in any criminal behavior or anything?
No, see, we can go. We can probably sit here for about three or four hours and talk about my family history. Wade Remington, who's my daddy's second cousin, my first cousin, got caught with the most cocaine in North Carolina back in the 80s. Oh, shit. Half of my family's some Hells Angels.
We got a little bit of mixed area things, some trailer park trash, and then we got some high-end embezzlement bankers and stuff like that. Okay. So, yeah, this is criminal history for shit show.
Definitely.

Chapter 6: What challenges did Cuzbra face in his early music career?
Were you always like drawn to the streets or when would you say you jumped off the porch?
We got to throw it into the mix. You know what I'm saying? You know, poverty hits everybody. You know, even with two pair of household, you can still suffer and then have to, you know, move into a circumstance where you need to save money and, you know, downgrade a little bit. And that's what happened with us, you know, especially when grandma died. So we definitely had to figure that one out.
Wait, so your grandma died and that kind of messed up the financial situation?
Not messed it up, but it's just like, you know, she was the backbone of everything, you know, especially to the, like the high, you know, the monarch, you know, so. Right. She kept everything together. And after that, everybody was on their own and, you know, we had to move, so.
Okay, so you guys moved more towards a rougher area at that time?
Yeah, we were around a rougher area for sure. But most of my friends, again, they're so close, right?

Chapter 7: How does Cuzbra view collaboration within the North Carolina community?
So most of my friends are from that area we ended up moving into anyway. So we was already, you know, in the mix type stuff. But then once you move out there, you know, definitely about to be in the mix.
Right, okay, definitely. So yeah, when did you first start getting in trouble or getting involved in the streets?
I say my first charge was stealing and stuff like that. You know, a small charge. I ain't got no big, I ain't got no felonies. And, you know, I ain't, you know, everybody has their story, you know, as a kid growing up, you know, when they stole and then they started getting into stuff like that. We stole because we was hungry. We didn't have nothing, you know. And mom and pops, pops out working.
Mom inside, take your ass outside. We're in a new generation. So it started from stealing and stuff like that.
Chapter 8: What future plans does Cuzbra have for his content and brand?
You know how it progressed.
It's crazy now because I was just watching this interview of people just talking about stealing from the grocery store. And they just talk about it like it's a victimless crime. Not a victimless crime, but as if you can't get in trouble for it, as if it's so not a big deal. I'm like, bro, when I was stealing out the grocery store when I was a kid, I was terrified.
And they were really going to arrest you for that shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was my first charge. That was my first time being in the back of a police car stealing candy. For sure. For sure. But I made a promise then. I said, I don't want to get caught no more.
But you didn't pledge to stop doing crimes, but to just not get caught?
Yeah, I pledged to get better at it.
That makes sense.
Yeah.
Okay. So where did you kind of go from there?
