Jim Jones joins us for the latest episode of "How To Roll."

Jim Jones has been on a a hefty grind these days with the release of his latest project, Wasted Talent. The project marked his first album in nearly seven years. It was another project that proved why he's one of the nicest on the microphone and hasn't lost his touch one bit. He recently joined us for another episode of "How To Roll" where he detailed his horrible experience eating edibles.

Jim Jones enjoys smoking weed but he's definitely not a fan of edibles at all. The rapper recalled a time in his teen years when he used to get weed from a Jamaican spot that he and his friends used to smoke and play pool at. One of the guys there gave him a coconut candy with weed extract in it. The edible was so good that he ended up eating way more than one. However, the effects of the edible ended up hitting him the following day.

"The next day, I couldn't fuckin' walk. I couldn't walk for two days straight." He said. On the third day, he was walking low to the ground. "I had lost all my equilibrium, bro. Fuckin' with them edibles, bro. I thought I was going to die, bro. I didn't know what was going on so fuck edibles."

The rapper also recalled the time he started a chain reaction of people sparking up inside of Miami's The Forge restaurant, his favorite strain and more.
