"'Chill Bill' is the first song I ever put out. It's a wild story: That morning we made it, we were actually in he back of a police car. We ended up being let go because they didn't have anything to convict us with or anything. It was me, ['Chill Bill' collaborators] Spooks, J. Davi$, and Thommed Cruz. We were let out of the back of that police car, and when and wrote that song within the hour."
The MC adds that the experience was his "wake-up call," adding, "for me to be in this seat versus that police car that morning, it humbles me."
