VIBE has Big Sean on the cover of their latest digital edition which you can watch above. Accompanying that is an in depth interview with the Detroit rapper. Below is an excerpt.
“Ashley” is another one of those that’s definitely going to have some of your fans in tears.
I wrote it when me and Ashley were together. She’s been through so much. When you with the girl that you knew since you were 16, it hardly ever works out and we tried to make it work, believe me. Without her, I wouldn’t be shit. She helped me so much.Was she your first true love?
She was definitely my first true love. She was always at the shows. She would let me sleep on her couch when I came to visit before we were together. She was definitely that ride-or-die chick. I had to pay my homage and my respect to her. She deserves it, and she’s awesome.When’s the last time you talked to her?
I recently hit her up because there was a lot of confusion going on. My girl Naya put out a song, and a lot of people were like ‘Aw she said all these names at the end, she said Ashley.’ When I really heard the song, I didn’t even think about it like that. She’s saying Amber, Brittany, Tiffany—those were just random names, there’s 4 million girls with the name Ashley. People took that attention from the song opposed to it being a song that they can relate to and have fun with.
