With help from The Alchemist, the father-son duo set the stage for a multigenerational run in hip-hop
, the Grammy-winning producer who’s laced Kanye West, Jay-Z, and others with chart-topping hits. Big Hit had been incarcerated since Hit-Boy was three years old, including a 15-year federal sentence which included a five-year period where the two had no contact due to prison restrictions. They had some jail visits throughout his incarceration, but Big Hit’s freedom represented a chance for a more holistic relationship.
“We in a groove at this point, we just got to keep elevating what we doing,” he says. “I literally see the comments like, ‘Man y’all gelling even more now, Big Hit sounding harder and harder.’ I’m out in Atlanta right now, I ran into a dude, he like ‘Man they rocking with Big Hit out in Atlanta. That nigga rapping way better too.’ I’m really seeing it in real time.
Big Hit: It just would be like, I want to do more. I feel like I’m not doing enough, but Hit-Boy be having to hold me back. Hit-Boy got the choke chain on me. So however he releases me like, “Get it,” like a dog. I just be going hard in the paint and he’ll be like, “Hold up, that’s enough.” Then somebody come in. I’m on I’m on go-mode.

I was wondering how much you think that competitive aspect of being around other artists accelerates the process of improving for you? Hit-Boy: Man, I think it’s going to be some shit people never seen. On some Jackson 5 it’s the Hollis 4 between me, Big Hit, Jalena, and my son , he dropped his first song already at four years old. I’m like man, yeah we really finna take it there and just really keep spreading that family aspect. People come up to me in real life like, “Man, I reached out to my dad man.
