It filters all of that sh*t out of your body-the bad sh*t. There’s been many a days in the year that I was on dialysis where I was like, ‘F*ck this I’m done with this sh*t.’ ‘Cause I didn’t see an end to it.” The Houston, Texas veteran says he spent a year and a half on dialysis, “You never know how much a kidney is needed until it’s gone. I know it’s selfish, but I would rather not do that dialysis sh*t. Brad responds, “When you think about doing dialysis, Will, and how it makes you feel after, and just being connected to a machine forever, I was willing to take that chance, man. Willie asks Scarface if he was prepared for the “very slim possibility” of death when he went into the operating room. Brad offers a play-by-play recollection of what happened in September.

On a recent episode of the Geto Boys Reloaded podcast, Chris Jordan joins hosts Scarface and Willie D.

"So he's just thinking to himself 'okay if I kill myself, she gets the life insurance.' Even though it would've been suicide, and you don't get the life insurance, he was just thinking erratically, cause it's his mom. He blew through all his money, and he wasn't smart with it," Knxw explains. "The reason he even shot himself in the eye and how that whole process went about, is because he wanted to give money to my grandma because she needed to pay her hospital bills.
Not only would his cleverness and lyricism add something new to the hip-hop landscape at the time, but Bill would also be responsible for creating some of the most quintessential album covers ever. What a lot of people don't know is that my pops graduated high school at the age of 15 and graduated bible school in Minnesota at 17, and was going to leave to do missionary work overseas in India, but he left from New York to Houston and visited my aunt for a week, and within that week, his whole life changed."
