Live from Orange Mound, Big Syl visits the iconic Pressure World car wash and reflects on Memphis’s legendary whip culture. He talks about how DJ Zirk sampled him on the classic track "Lock'em N Da Trunk," his history with Suave House’s Tony Draper, and breaks down connections to Memphis legends like 8Ball & MJG, DJ Squeeky, and Kingpin Skinny Pimp. During the interview, Syl revisits the area where he grew up, recounts witnessing his first murder at nine years old and how it shaped his life, and reflects on both the creation of R.A.N. and gangs spreading to Memphis in the '90s. Syl also touches on Orange Mound’s rich history as the first Black community built by and for African Americans, friendship with Young Dolph, knowing Hernandez Govan (the alleged mastermind behind Dolph's murder), how he's survived Memphis and more.
