Q1: Do you miss touring and hanging with slaughterhouse as a whole group not just you and Kxng Crooked?

Q2: When some new heat coming man. I’m talking slaughterhouse nasty Joell?
Ortiz: 2021.
Q3: Favorite Glass House joint? Also, a song that you love which you wish you made.

Q4: What do you think about Griselda?
Ortiz: TOUGH.
Q5: A collaboration you did that had you like “wtf I’m doing a record with this person?!”
Ortiz: Probably some of the early Slaughterhouse records with Eminem.
