Interview with Dope Boy Von (DBV)
By: Where It Begins
Q. When you wrote this song, “We in the Trap” where was your mindset at?
A. I was in the trap meaning the studio that’s my trap. Playing some pool and I started writing.
Q. What or who inspired you to get into entertainment?
A. I had a best friend before I was doing music; she was a great singer: one day we had a block party in our projects in Brown subs, and she took a stray bullet to the head and 2 hours later she passed away. She inspired me so much on how hard she was going with her music that I wrote my first song about her.
Q. What kind of things can you try to remember or implement to keep you from burning out or letting your passion drive you opposed to pushing you backward.
A. Sometimes you want to reach a goal so fast but wonder why you’re not getting it. It’s because you can’t force it, you have to let it happen. I don’t force songs out, timing is everything.
Q. Who is one of your favorite artists that inspired you?
A. Rick Ross and Flo Rida.
Q. Do you think it’s enough pie for all the artists to eat?
A. It’s enough space for everyone to eat. Florida is the next biggest place for music that’s coming out. Kodak Black, Triple X, & Ferrari Fred. We got next, we them Florida boys.
