Blue called to Vibe that the Chicago rapper heard his song, "Every Man For Himself." He continued, "In 2011, he came to Miami because he had a tour going on. He stopped and jumped on a radio station and before their interview was over he said 'Yo before I leave I want to give a very special and big, big, BIG shout out to one of my favorite gangsta rappers and as a matter of fact, he's from Miami.' People were like he's probably going to say Trick Daddy or Rick Ross or someone like that but then he said 'Billy Blue.' Then my phone went to ringing! After that, it was all uphill from there. He called me. We met up with each other and we became real cool fucking friends. This tour right here was what really brought us together."
He added, "I'm already a humble person, but [Lupe Fiasco] made me even more humble. He's broadened the way I see things. He showed me that this world we're in is like a box that we all live in. This box doesn't have a locked door. There's a door to this box and you actually open the door and walk out the box. You can extend your thoughts, broaden your vision and see from a different perspective. Read, you know what I'm saying? It's not hidden. The books are there. But he says to read this book, read that book, learn about that person. He's a great educator man. When it comes to education, he takes it so serious that it motivates you to know knowledge and learn more knowledge."Centeno, Tony (March 10, 2016).
