HipHopDX: I want to rewind it to the very beginning. Who was De-Haven in 1988? Because obviously, that's the timeline that we've gotten on the rap side of things.
De-Haven: De-Haven was a young hustler that was making major moves out on the streets doing my own thing; holding down family and friends wherever I found myself. De-Haven was about money. If it didn't make money, it didn't make sense. De-Haven was chasing money across state lines in '88, going for that double or nothing type money. It wasn't a game. I had moved out of state, [to] Trenton, New Jersey, and it was poppin' like hot butter on popcorn. A couple months later, I came back for [Jay-Z], I let him know that it was all good, and he came out. My aunt was good people, and before you knew it, Jay never went back home. [At this point,] I had my homeboy with me, you couldn't tell me nothing. Money was coming, chicks everywhere, and the road ahead was alright. Check out the rest of the interview here
