INDUSTRY INTERVIEW: Plies

Plies
In stores June 10, 2008

Last August, shortly after he released his debut album, “The Real Testament,” rapper Plies jumped inside our DJBooth for an exclusive interview. At the time, the Fort Myers, Florida native was riding high with his T-Pain-assisted single, “Shawty,” and had just began etching his name into the mainstream landscape.

A little less than ten months later, Plies is back at it again with the chart-topping “Bust It Baby (Pt. 2),” the lead single off his sophomore album, “Definition of Real.” With the new release, Plies will look to become the first rapper since Nelly (Sweat and Suit) to release more than one gold-certified album in a span of twelve months.

In an exclusive interview with DJBooth‘s DJ “Z,” Plies steps inside the booth to talk about his excitement over the new release, why he constantly eats a slice of ‘humble pie,’ who fit the bill for his current diamond pendant album promotion, and why touring army bases and prisons are at the top of his to-do list.
