Yo Gotti:Man it feels good. I'm working on the album and trying to make sure we put the perfect plan together.

DW: What made you want to join the Sony Music family verses other labels? I'm sure you had other offers.

Yo Gotti:I think it had to do with their passion and them being determined people. They are like myself so I felt we would make a perfect team.

Yo Gotti:Yeah I'm good. Making moves with them. The first song we put out, it was a top hit record.
