Roddy Ricch went for the interview at The ETCs Podcast with Kevin Durant and Eddie Gonzales. Among other topics, Ricch also brought up his recent confrontation with the Recording Academy. Notably, the artist talked about Lil Baby and Lil Uzi Vert not receiving Grammy nominations.
“I feel like everybody got their own lane, everybody got their own thing they do,” Roddy Ricch claimed. “You know what I’m saying? Uzi is like, like when I was talking to the Grammys, I’m like, ‘Y’all ain’t nominate Uzi for [Best] Rap Album?’ I was tripping on them. Even like Lil Baby: ‘Y’all ain’t nominate Lil Baby?’ Like I’m tripping, ’cause it’s like everybody got their own lane, and it should be spoken about, talked about more, because I feel like the n***as now that’s doing shit like no disrespect, but we really breaking barriers.”
Roddy Ricch also talked about his musical inspirations on top of bringing up the artists he finds hot and underrated. “The way Kanye do shit, that’s inspirational.” Ricch kept listing, “The way Nipsey move, his being, the way he talk, the power in his words…I take that from him. JAY…that n***a like…he on a whole other level. The whole no writing shit, I took that from him.”
