if you could go back and talk to yourself as a kid, what would you tell yourself?
I probably would've told myself to stay in school longer [and] get a college degree. I'd try to be more knowledgeable about the world, because I could've used that in my profession right now. My vocabulary would be wider. I'd be more knowledgeable. I could touch on more topics in my music. But I only go as far as I know, and that's the streets.
What were you like when you were younger?
I was bad as a kid, but I was smart. I was in a lot of trouble, but only because I was a busybody and I didn't have anything to occupy my time. If they'd kept me [involved] with activities … I probably would've excelled. I wasn't into sports or anything. I was just running the streets.
I'm bout to get on my soapbox...but I really wish this side of rappers was made more available to kids. They only going to listen me for somuch...but if they could hear it from somebody like Gucci, a person who they probably think doesn't have ANY regrets....and especially not about education,it would really get through to them.

Xavier "Zaytoven" Dotson literally is crafting the sound of the South as we know it right now. Usher, Jagged Edge, Rick Ross, Slim from 112, Yung LA - all are on his just-done list, but his biggest clients are the two dudes he's been rocking with for years, Gucci Mane and OJ Da Juiceman.
"When me and Gucci sit down, I make tracks real fast and he can write songs real fast," Zay told us about his friend of almost a decade. Their winning game plan was to just release new music as frequently as possible.
"We felt we could do that faster and more than anybody else," Zay explained. "We put out more music than anybody else has. We felt that what's was gonna separate us from everybody else. Everybody don't get a chance to breathe. People be like, 'They putting out all that music' - it made them pay attention."
The Gucc is back in the studio after his jail stint, and 'Toven said people are just now recognizing what he's known for almost 10 years.
"He actually came and was trying to write music for his little nephew," he said of how Gucci first started making his own songs. "He was coming by [my studio], trying to get his nephew. Once he started recording and I heard him ... I said, 'This guy got it right here.' A lot of people didn't hear it then, but I liked Gucci Mane's music a whole lot. We were doing our own thing. I'd make beats, he'd rap and we'd go to the club and perform.
"The sound I got is how Gucci Mane rap," Zay explained. "It's hard, but it's still bright and got character to it. It ain't just hard and gory - it's got life to it."
