FYB J Mane delved into the creation of the BDK (Black Disciple Killer) anthem song alongside Billionaire Black, shedding light on the complex dynamics within Chicago's rap scene. J Mane recounted his early days in the hood, explaining how he navigated friendships across different affiliations despite the ongoing conflicts. He emphasized that from an early stage, his connections spanned across both BD and GD friends, even as he found himself amidst rival gangs during a turbulent time in Chicago.
J Mane elaborated on the motivation behind the BDK anthem, acknowledging the influence of late rapper Lil Jojo's original song. He described himself as a "late bloomer," yet a "secret weapon" whose emerging presence symbolized a commitment to transcend the street labels, focusing instead on a broader perspective aimed at inspiring the youth and nurturing community growth. With an emphasis on unity rather than division, J Mane aims to shift the conversation beyond gang affiliations.
