Larry Hoover Jr. and J Prince were recent guests on Million Dollaz Worth of Game and spoke about how things came together for the Kanye West and Drake benefit concert for Larry Hoover Sr. Larry Jr. got into the particulars of the event but also indicated that the concert was a "blueprint" for other artists to use as a way to set aside or even end feuds.
Larry Jr. recounted conversations he'd had about bringing the two artists together for the benefit concert and how he planned to pull it off.
“So he seen that, just talking to ’em, knew that we had a relationship with Kanye and then with Drake through J,” Hoover Jr. said. “And he seen that we had this relationship but with the little stuff that he got to see, he seen that them guys was at odds and he would hear about other artists and stuff, you know what I mean, killing each other and going to jail over back-and-forth nonsense. So he was just saying, ain’t there something y’all could do to try to bring them together?”
He continued, “We put our efforts there and brought ’em together hoping that it would be a blueprint for the other artists to try to follow to look and see, like, if these guys can bring it together and put they differences aside and make money and enjoy life, maybe some other people will follow suit. [...] Because there are way too many of these guys out here, you know, feeling like they’re living the gangster life when they should be living the millionaire life and they dying and losing everything when they just get to that position. They should be enjoying and bringing other people up instead of going to jail and dying and their friends dying. I thought they became entertainers to get out the street. That’s what it’s supposed to have been about.”
