Boston rapper Last Days recently sat down with the FullyLoaded podcast for a candid conversation about music, culture, and the controversies surrounding P. Diddy. The conversation, filled with raw insights and unfiltered opinions, touched on everything from the struggles of Boston’s Black music community to personal experiences with lost jewelry.
We Make Jokes Out of Everything
When discussing P. Diddy’s ongoing legal troubles, Last Days made a bold statement about how the Black community often treats serious situations. “We don’t take things seriously—we turn everything into a joke,” he remarked, questioning whether this tendency diminishes the weight of certain issues. He also hinted at how powerful interests may target successful Black figures, fueling larger conversations about media narratives.
The Jewelry Story
Last Days shared an unforgettable experience involving a lost pendant necklace at Encore, a popular club. After misplacing the expensive piece, it was eventually discovered by a cleaning lady, who pawned it. With the help of the police, he was able to reclaim it. Since then, he’s shifted his preference from flashy diamond pieces to heavy gold chains, citing concerns over depreciation.
Music, Career & Boston’s Lack of Support
The rapper also touched on his career, noting the positive reception of his latest album. His track “Say So” is currently his most popular song. However, he expressed frustration over the lack of unity and support among Boston’s Black artists, contrasting it with how other cities rally behind their talent. He referenced New Edition’s success but pointed out that Boston often fails to uplift its homegrown artists in the same way.
Last Days even mentioned using Bobby Brown on album covers as a tribute, yet he felt the recognition for such efforts remained minimal.
Sexuality & Social Perceptions
Another topic that surfaced was how the Black community perceives discussions around sexuality. Last Days weighed in on how certain conversations are handled differently based on cultural backgrounds, though the discussion remained brief compared to other segments. From industry politics to personal experiences, Last Days’ FullyLoaded appearance was filled with strong opinions and real talk.
