Y’all don’t understand when a street 🥷 been thru so much & seen sht u ain’t supposed to see it’s hard to be outgoing give son some time he’ll open up soon right now he putting out that 🔥 let’s support our young kings that made it out
Sleepy really need to brake the barrier by being more social & doing more versatile features with other rappers . I want too see bro at celebrity basketball tournaments, streams, etc. He is holding back too much for someone who makes such good music.

Or He might just have social anxiety , He literally got a song called “ anxiety “ so it correlates tbh 😂
This what we been waiting on ak 🔥
I know hes usually not the most outspoken person and has anxiety n shit but it woulda been nice to see him with a little more energy and speaking more fluidly in this interview (edit - seems like he opened up more as the interview went on). Also even though Ak was putting a lot more energy into the interview it seemed like Sleepy was at least trying tho. W interview fr 👍🏽 Hope Sleepy doing well health wise (the last thing I saw of him was he was in the hospital for something to do with his heart) and mentally (the indictment shit and being in and out of jail while having a young kid) Glad him and Eli are free wanna see him Sheff and Eli go up fr 📈

Facts. Every sleepy interview I've watched, which is mostly everyone that has came out, he seems low energy and his responses are pretty short and fast. Would like him to see him expand more but that just comes with time I guess.

Sleepy has potential to be way bigger than he already is. From what I got out this interview he just seems to be lacking hunger and drive. He say he not rlly w the internet shit which I get but if u look at the hottest rappers rn it’s all abt promo, exposure and getting your name to audiences that wouldn’t usually listen to that type of music. Anyway wishing bro good health and wealth

Been of fan of Sleepy and Sheff for a long time now. I gotta be honest he does himself no favours with an interview like this. The one time Ak listen to his music on stream he said it makes him feel Sleepy. Sleepy gets an interview with Ak and proceeds to be boring af. He posts stories of random shit everyday he’s very much an internet nigga. Like I said big fan but he be forcing the lazy/too cool aesthetic too much

Sleepy makes great music ! Classic music and is still considered a new artist he really in the streets so it's tough transition but I believe he will be alot bigger by the end of next year . He need a couple industry features he'll be a top 20 artist easy

I'm worried for him I got the same vibe from x before he died he seems like a good dude but too much negativity wrapped up in his past I just hope that shit doesn't come back to bite him
Him actually looking sleepy through out this interview is crazy.
