Waka Flocka is not necessarily known for his vulnerability, but our heart has gone out to him since his brother's all-too-recent passing, last December. When he sat down with WKYS, he spoke about how his life is different now, saying:
"After that situation, I detoxed for like seven days. I changed my diet. I became 85 percent vegan. I just felt like I had to cleanse myself…I've been through that before, so to me that’s will power because if I sit there and mope, a lot of things could go bad. That boy had a lot of stress on him. It’s a lot of things that go on behind doors that people don’t know about...like it’s a lot of stress that come with this game. The strong survive. The family is good, though. Life goes on. That’s the motto for me, life goes on. If my eyes ain’t closed and I’m not breathing, I’m not hurting."
We wish him the best during this tough time. During the interview Waka also spoke out on his ongoing troubles with Gucci Mane, saying, "The only thing Gucci I wear is the clothing line. Like as a friend, it's over. For me to risk my life, give my life, give my loyalty, give my friendship—to see somebody treat it like it was some ink on a paper?"
