In this full-length interview, legendary music promoter (and former member of the infamous Supreme Team) sits down with DJ Vlad to talk about growing up in an impoverished household with six siblings and the influential role that drugs played in their family dynamic. The Queens street legend also sheds light on his father's tumultuous relationship with the mob and what led to his death. From there, he talks about his older sister took up the mantle, in order to help raise Bimmy and the rest of their siblings by working three jobs all at once.

As the conversation continues, he looks back on getting kicked out of the family household by his mother and getting into the drug game which eventually led to him working with the drug lord known as Supreme. From there, he talks about getting locked up, getting released from prison, becoming a Christian, and eventually transitioning from a drug dealer to one of the most visionary A&R reps to have ever worked at Def Jam. He also recounts working with the likes of Method Man, Slick Rick, and LL Cool J before explaining why he regrets having sold drugs in his younger days.

    REALEST INTERVIEW EVER..PEACE TO BIMMY..FOR SURVIVING AND CHANGING HIS LIFE..
  • @fredwiggins54
    This was an excellent interview, Bimmy is a natural story teller that captivates the audience. You could feel him when he was talking about food, the juices and the chicken patties; it made me think of Ghost Face Killa's "All that I got is you". I grew up in the ghettos of Staten Island and back in the 70's and 80's free lunch was popping hard in the summer. When Reagan came to office alot of the programs that served the city youth were eradicated. This interview brought back childhood memories of growing up in NYC.

    Bimmy conveys his life in such a way that it is entertaining yet there are real lessons to take from it!! He's brilliant, real and inspirational!! I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation.
  • @rdp842003
    Bimmy is smart. He controlled the interview and the entire time, telling stories and evading certain questions.
  • @aedhcnef6083
    I fell asleep watching this interview. And woke up to finish it. Bimmy, you are a gem. God bless you.

    Bimmy's comments on grace and Christian values saving him is soooooo true. My brother and I grew up across the street from 40 projects in South Side in the 80's - down the street from the Rib Shack Cafe on Linden Blvd. It was like the Wild Wild West when the Crack Bomb went off in 1985. So many of our contemporaries/relatives/friends are dead or still in jail. We remember seeing Bimmy rock his Fedora and his C Class Mercedes and watching Deb rule parks off the Van Wyck. 50 Cent (Boo Boo as we knew him in the 'hood) Mom Sabrina used to catch the Q60 on Sutphin Blvd with us. My brother and I often ask ourselves why we survived when so many did not. We believe the armor of God protected us as we stayed true to our Christian faith and we had so many others praying for us. During that time, Black Muslims kept telling us that Christianity was the "White man's" religion but if you study Christian history, you will find that the oldest Christian churches were in Ethiopia and that there were Black Popes. Even the Patron Saint of Christianity in Europe was an Black Ethiopian named Maurice. My brother and I went to a Holiness church in Rosedale on Sunday and came out on Wednesday. We hated it at the time but we now realize how blessed we were to be covered by the grace of God.

  • @QuotOne
    Bimmy a solid dude. Really enjoy all his interviews.. one story that stuck out how 3 lives were lost over $1000. (2 dead 1 in prison for life) the ego truly is the enemy of man..
  • @donaldjackson1744
    I could listen to stories from Bimmy all day. He just got that personality that's interesting. Plus he seems like a stand up guy.

    Vlad kill me with them long pauses šŸ˜‚ ā€œā€¦..okā€ šŸ˜‚
  • @km-qc3iv
    Good story. The only part I was looking sideways at was when he said he called his Grandma on his father's side up and asked her to put the house up for collateral. A lot of times in the hood the house is the only major asset people own. I probably would've thought the same way as Bimmy when I was younger but now that I'm older I understand the grandmother's perspective.
  • @joycetubbs4388
