I caught up with Chicago Southside Englewood native Boi Floyd before his show at Reggie’s nightclub. The show was a celebration of the release of his new mixtape ‘For Better or Worse.’ Before hitting the stage, Boi Floyd sat down and answered some questions for us. One specific question I asked was how Boi Floyd was going to capture the ears of the Chicago people? “I know I can get the ears of the people because we coming from the same place” he said. The up and coming artist sounded confident about his ascension in the rap game. “I just want to show people you can be yourself.” he said.

Now that the dust is settling from the release of your two volumes of Never Thirsty Always Hungry, what’s next for you? What have you learned from the experience?
Next is “The Commencement” 100% produced by Nobody Famous. We’ve been holding on to this one for a while and I feel that now is the perfect time to share it with the world. What I have learned is to keep going. If you don’t have nothing new to share, they forget about you. Out of mind, out of site, so you gotta stay active. Read More

How do you think the Houston scene has evolved since the “Still Tippin” heydays?
Well Houston has a new wave and a new sound coming as of now. Artist are being more melodic and speeding it up since the “Still Tipping” days. Now days the typical Houston artist is still paying homage to the city but everything is not about a slab or riding on 4’s. Read More

Black Truth News: You just released the new album. How do you feel about it? How do you feel it compares to your previous releases?
Scriyl Da Ghost: The new album is doing well. I’m getting a lot of good feedback from this project. I always think my latest work is my best work, but this project really is my best so far. I say that because I can play it from beginning to end without skipping through a song. I think that’s important because I’m a major music consumer myself so I try to create music that I want to listen to, and I did that with HRHRV2. Read More
