REMY MA REFLECTS ON HER FIRST YEAR OUT OF PRISON

Remy Ma has reflected on her first year out of prison. The rapper was released from prison on July 31st 2014 after being convicted of a shooting outside of a Manhattan nightclub in July 2007. In an interview with XXL, when asked if she agreed with Tupac when he said that prison, "kills your spirit," she said, "Yes. He was 100 percent right, and he wasn’t even there as long as I was. It’s a stress level that’s hard to explain to someone who’s never been inside before. When you go to prison, you don’t feel like a superstar. It really humbles you as a person."

On rappers that glorify jail, she said, "I don’t have any hard feelings toward rappers who do that. They’re extremely lucky. I can’t stress this enough—jail and prison are not the same thing, but people get them confused all the time. Honestly, if I went to jail for a couple of months, I would have a completely different understanding of the system. The impact wouldn’t have been nearly as significant."

  • On if she had any positive takeaways from jail, she said, "Going back to what I said about not feeling like a superstar—that’s what prison is supposed to do. After the initial stress of the first couple years, I started to meet people that I now consider lifelong friends. I remembered how many people were outside waiting for my release, and more so, waiting for more Remy Ma music. I was fortunate to have a strong support system with my husband and kids. Even though I served a long six years, some people don’t ever get out at all. For that I’m grateful."

The coating on the Vicodin and the Valium I’d been taking for years leaves a hole in your stomach, so to avoid a stomachache, I was constantly eating—and eating badly." He also revealed how he lost 81 pounds, saying, "Seventeen miles a day on a treadmill. I would get up in the morning, and before I went to the studio, I would run eight and a half miles in about an hour. Then I’d come home and run another eight and a half.
