superflyDMX_blog.jpgHow many RC toys do you have?
I’ve got about 40—at least 20 helicopters, a few airplanes, and a lot of cars.

What’s the most you’ve spent on one?
I have a custom-made miniature drag racer that cost $2,500. It goes 140 miles an hour. It’s got a fiberglass body and a working parachute that I haven’t deployed. Once I get it going that fast,
I hit one rock and the car’s gonna flip.

How did you get into this?
One of my old security guards told me about this stuff. When I was a kid, nobody in my family had a car. And I didn’t have many toys. The only toys I had were the ones I would steal.

Do you need a license to fly these?
Yeah, because they take off like real planes, and they go 120 miles an hour. They could kill somebody. If one of these planes comes down and hits you, it’s a wrap.

Any interest in getting a real pilot’s license?
No, because I don’t want to crash a plane. I just wanna do like normal people do: sit on my ass in the back of the plane and let the pilot fly the damn thing.

Are you the only rapper you know with this hobby?
I think I used to be, but I turned a lot of rap artists on to remote-control toys and actually bought them their first cars—Method Man, Redman, Ludacris, that girl from The Sopranos.

Meadow?
Yeah, she and I did a movie together, and I bought her a car. She enjoyed it, but she couldn’t drive the thing for shit.
