Birthdays are normally for celebrating and celebrities often indulge pretty intensely in the art of having massive birthday affairs. While 21 Savage has had an elaborate party or two since becoming famous, he recently sat down for an interview where he talked about a far more harrowing birthday experience. He recently sat down with Shannon Sharpe for an episode of his podcast Club Shay Shay. The show has already made waves this year for a controversial and completely unhinged interview with Katt Williams.
By comparison, 21 is much more composed in his interview, though that doesn't stop him from discussing interesting subject matter. His take on having rich parents versus poor parents is already going viral but another story he told is perhaps even more attention-grabbing. He told the story of being shot 6 times on his 21st birthday. The incident was a full-blown shootout that Savage describes in extensive detail across nearly 10 full minutes. He discussed how the altercation started, how the shootout unfolded, and the medical attention he received afterward. Listen to him tell the full harrowing experience below.
