Bleu Davinci checked in with This Is 50 Radio and addressed a whole bunch of topics including his nearly five year prison bid, Big Meech, BMF and Young Jeezy jumping ship from his crew in the streets when the ish hit the fan.

It's no secret that many feel Jezzy turned industry when indictments started being handed out and when asked about Jezzy's street credibility, Bleu had this to say:

"Is he well respected in the streets out there?"

"Yeah the whole Homo community love him."

Bleu Davinci kept it 100 and added,

"I like the man music because I always did and that's why i f*cked with him from jump street so I'm not no hater. But if you and your homeboys are walking through the mall and it's three of ya'll and then 15 guys walk up and say, 'We bout to beat ya'll @$$,' and the Nicca that run... That was Jezzy."

He also shed some light on T.I.'s gun cases and believes that T.I. didn't snitch on anyone but was working for the "right people."
