Chinx Drugz is working his way up to the top! He hits us off with some serious fire on the Funk Flex show, and now he states that, “Feelings” is an anthem, just like, “I’m A Coke Boy,” was.
“I got the anthem to our movement…At the time when that record [“I’m A Coke Boy“] came out, the record was so dope and unfortunately I wasn’t ready and well-equipped on the business side,” to start pushing it,” Chinx tells, XXL. “Now, I got…”Feelings,” and it’s catching way more damage.” That it is!
Chinx also releases the facts on meeting French Montana and his style. Hit the jump for more.
Don’t forget, after checking the gallery, if you haven’t already, go download that Funk Flex app!
How did you and French meet?
My brother Stack Bundles, rest in peace. I was in the group called the Riot Squad. That’s where I started out. Me, Bino, Cau2Gs and Stack Bundles. The four of us. When I got incarcerated, Jim Jones wanted to work with Stack. So, they formed a crew called the Byrd Gang, which was Stack Bundles, Max B and Jim Jones. So when I came home, Stack passed away and Max B was still home fighting his murder case and shit. Max B sought after me. One of his homies saw me in the club when I went to see Max. Stack knew Max and Max knew French. That’s how I met French, at Max B’s house. Max B is serving 75 years now, but me and French just continued to keep working. That’s how we formed the Coke Boys and just kept banging.What do you think is your style? Is New York hip-hop lacking right now?
I don’t think New York is lacking style. I just think we’re the creators of this shit. I think even we subconsciously [are] just a little tired of the routine, the tradition. We want to switch it up a bit. If you go to my old mixtapes, the old Hurry Up And Dies and the old Riot Squads tapes that we used to do, you’ll see back then that I had a Midwestern, Southern flow twang with my shit. That was almost 10 years ago. This was a long time ago. Three 6 Mafia was one of my favorite groups. I love Juicy J. I know you probably hear the flow, the new flow that everybody is doing? I started that, but I can’t take full credit for it because I took that shit 10 years ago from Juicy J. Now Future got the “Karate Chop.” Shout out to Meek Mill and Nicki and Fab. It just shows that people paying attention and I can come into the game and create. I wouldn’t say I have a style. That ’90s New York rap shit is in there on top of whatever I am bringing. So, my style is very versatile.
