Chapter 1: What sparked Clutch's Kevin Gates impersonation?
This Kevin Gates impersonation swept the internet, bro. NBA Youngboy was incarcerated at the time. I need to find who impersonates NBA Youngboy. I'm seeing money I've never seen before. Man, I'm on Facebook. Young boy impersonator got killed. I can't even explain the pain and the guilt, bruh, that I felt. Man, it's something that's kind of hard for me to talk about, bruh.
Chapter 2: How did Clutch's childhood shape his experiences?
And you don't know until you get ready to talk about it, you know? Because this is something that I just thought would be easy, but as soon as I start saying it, all them emotions kind of hit me at once. So, like... Yeah, but we was staying in Natchitoches, and my mama met this dude. I ain't going to call his name, but yeah, my mama met this dude, and they dating, they doing whatever they doing.
So we stayed in a place called South Town in Natchitoches. I used to always hear about this dude named Steve and his brother, like his brother was paralyzed or something, like his arm was stuck a certain type of way. So they is who we called a cool pop lady, the person that sell popsicles. People say, but in negative they say cool pops, but most people say popsicles.
But they was the cool pop lady, so you take your dime, your quarter, now and then, get you a cool pop or whatever. So for the first time, the dude was outside, the dude that was paralyzed. You know what I'm saying? So I seen him and it was like, oh, dang, that's Steve's brother right there. That's the dude they be talking about. I ran home and like, mama, guess who I seen?
And her and the dude that she talking to, like who? I'm like, Steve's brother. So he was like, Like, why this, you know, at the time I'm like five or six. He like, why this baby telling you he seen his dude? Like, what you and Steve brother got going on? So my mama like lost, like, you know what I'm saying? She confused.
And me at the time, not knowing I'm causing confusion or doing anything wrong. He got jealous that night is the first time I seen my mama get abused. You know what I'm saying? Like I seen him push my mama down in the front yard. And the reason why I was saying like it's tough to talk about because my mama is a devout Christian. Out of all my years, bro, I never heard my mama curse one time.
I never heard her say a nasty word. She never missed church. I never heard her even listen to a secular song. That's how serious she was about her salvation. You feel what I'm saying? So that's a lot of why I am the way that I am. You know what I'm saying? So I seen her trying to get up, and he was just pushing her. You know? And... That right there traumatized me. You know what I'm saying?
It traumatized me. So from that day, them never even having a fight or argument, it just went left. It went left. Now, this is a coming thing. I'm seeing it every day, every night. And he was drinking. He was like a dude that kept a beer in his hand. At that time, it was the beer in the brown-lit plastic bag. You know what I'm saying? He kept one. I'm seeing it every day. They fighting every day.
Me not knowing, I spearheaded this. I'm the reason behind this whole little thing. Man, I'm talking about, bro, this got so bad until my sister was pregnant. My sister was pregnant, and she tried to take up for my mama, and he ended up kicking or pushing or doing something to my sister, and my sister picked up a knife. And you know, I'm small. I'm probably like six or seven.
So I'm trying my best to do whatever I can do. swung me on the floor. You know what I'm saying? Like now I'm looking at my elbows and like, dang, I'm injured. So we all in there like trying to like fight this dude and these fights getting worse and worse. And my mama is not really a... She's so sweet and like non-confrontational. You know what I'm saying?

They had, like the young kid, they had it on lock. You knew, don't play with these dudes, bro. They, whatever, they gun violence. They, you know, they shooting up your house. Your car, whatever, they fighting you, whatever. In high school.
Bro, and we 13, 14. These people got big. This is middle school. That's like middle school. And then my partner, Kobe, he the coldest running back in the state in middle school. And he still at home got big pistols and fighting. You know what I'm saying? But me and him played running back and tailback. I mean, I played fullback. He played running back.
Boop, boop, boop.
Every day, bro. Like, I was seeing it, so... I ended up getting jumped one day. You know, I ain't going to go into detail, but these dudes jumped on me about this little situation. So I seen Kobe. He was like, bro, what happened? I'm like, bro, these dudes jumped on me. He was like, man, let's go over there right now. We went over there. I'm talking about, man, big, big old melee.
We all in the field, everybody fighting. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Now, after that day, I started getting confidence. You know what I'm saying? So we started working out. We doing push-ups because Kobe, you know, he swole. You know what I'm saying? Like, he was like 13, but he looked like a 19, 20-year-old. He was big.
So he had just, you know, he's showing me how to work out and stuff like that. So now I'm kind of losing that fear. Now I turn into, you know, I'm the predator. You feel me? Now, it's dangerous, bro. Once you feel that power, you never want to go back to that other side. So you take this further and further and further. You feel what I'm saying? Now I'm fighting. Man, I want all the phase.
I'm accepting all the phase. And this ain't no cap because people be coming on these. They ain't saying whatever. Man, you can ask anybody from where I'm from. They'll tell you, man, that boy like that. He'll fight anything. A lion, a tiger, a bear. He really ain't got no field. I seen him fight two, three people. They had sticks. Like the stories you be hearing that sound like it's cap.
They true with me, bro. Like, real deal. And I don't project that because that ain't what I want nobody... I'm too talented to be talking about all this stuff I did, this and that.

Chapter 4: How did Clutch's family dynamics affect him?
And I'm like, dang, bro, this dude really was serious about helping me or putting me on. So all I know is Tyler Perry and Oprah going to be there. You know what I'm saying? So I'm just trying to bump into them because you know this is my dream, whatever, whatever. So... I maneuver my way into going to fix up Tyler Perry's dressing room. Feel what I'm saying?
So I'm the person that's putting his chairs out and the snacks that he like. So boom, I'm in there doing that. And I'm really in there wasting time because I want him to come in there. You feel what I'm saying? So I can try to spark off a conversation or something. While I'm in Tyler Perry's dressing room, prolonging it, setting up time, I look up on the monitor and I see Oprah on stage.
This is why it was a shock to me. The dude, Uncle Run, the OG Jewish dude, like with all the money, white on white, Rolls Royce and everything. But he told me, that she probably wasn't coming. He was like, you know, it's Oprah, man. She might show up, she might not. She got a million things going on. So I kind of wasn't expecting to see her because I'm like, okay, he wouldn't know.
This dude would know. I looked up on the thing I seen. I was like, oh, she came. Boom. I grabbed my camera. And turned it on, it's on 1%, the light blinking. You know what I'm saying? No phone, no nothing. I'm like, dang, Oprah on this stage, and my camera on 1%. I grab my camera, I run to the stage, okay? Troy just had gave me this speech about how...
how easily you can get sued and cost the production artist money with making mistakes on these shows. So he was like, look, man, you got to keep your nose clean. You can't do this and you can't do that because one simple mistake, now we got to shoot over and we got to pay all these people so you can't afford to... So boom. I get on...
not only do I run to the stage, I get up on the stage, because I'm trying to increase my chances of meeting Oprah, right? So, boom, Oprah on the stage, she giving her little speech. Mind you, it was a show for T.D. Jakes, so everybody there was kind of showing him some appreciation and saying some good words about him and whatnot. So... And it's pictures of everything that I'm saying.
You feel what I'm saying? You could go see her on stage with the orange dress on at the opera house in Dallas. While she talking, I got comfortable and leaned on a chest. The chest is like a box that they store the cables in, you know, from all the different things that they plug up on stage. I thought the box was stable, but the box had wheels. So when I leaned on it, it rolled.
You know, like made this noise. So everybody like turned around and looked and she looked like, And that's when it hit my head, like, oh, Troy just told me a mistake can make. Bro, I'm sweating bullets, bro. Now, I don't even want to see Oprah no more. I want to run off stage. Like, right after she give her speech and they clap, I'm going to disappear. That's what I'm thinking.
I don't know how this happened. She gave her speech. Everybody clapped. I ran off stage. I don't know how this happened. I ran into her and what I think was maybe her assistant or somebody that started talking to me about what I had just done. You feel what I'm saying? I seen Oprah and I was like, bro, this is probably the most starstruck I ever been in life.
