As previously reported, the rapper “Type Of Way” recently opened up to Sway Calloway about how his lyrics have evolved since he compared them to the impact they will have on his children with the lyrics he has been rapping. “I am careful about what I say,” he said. “My children are growing older. In light of the fact that people are able to search for me on Google, I am concerned about what I express in my songs. ‘Cause I know they are listening. Therefore, so when they’re listening to the songs, their thought process is likely to be, ‘My daddy Rich Homie said that.’ Because of this, I don’t want to give them songs that are meant to shoot ’em up bang bang.”
