Logic speaks on the relationship with his mother.
Logic is no longer in connection with his estranged mother, reveals the rapper in a new interview. Logic recently made an appearance on The Adam Friedland Show, where he talked about his mother.
“One of the last times I had spoken to my mom was on my 21st birthday,” he reveals. “And I hadn’t seen her in a few years. And the thing about my mother is, she’s just a mentally ill person.”
He continued: “I’ve definitely relinquished any anger or any of that that I had. But I hadn’t seen her in a few years since I was probably 17, 18. And the last time I had seen her, she was like covered in blood and nak-d and screaming and the police were there. It was a whole thing.”
In his song “Dear God” back in 2012, Bobby claimed that his mother almost killed him when he was 9 years old. “What about the time I was nine and my mama almost murdered me? / Don’t think I forgot that sh-t, it still burdens me / Her bare hands tight around my throat /’I can’t breathe’ I screamed, ‘I can’t breathe, Mama / Don’t you want me, Mama? Don’t you love me, Mama? What the f–k?’”
Last year, the rapper tearfully confronted his father Robert Bryson Hall Sr. in his podcast. “There’s a part of me that has grown and developed mentally, but there is still that little boy that’s still waiting on the curb for his dad,” he said emotionally. “I waited every weekend and you never showed up. You always said that you would… I look at my son and I think how much my son means to me. I’m a man of my word today because you aren’t.
“I want you to know that it really hurt [and] I just want to ask: what is it like as a man who used a substance that would allow you to make that little boy wait forever? Was it worth it?”
Logic’s father responded: “It felt like being in Hell. It felt like having something control me. Like Rick James said, co-aine’s a Hell of a dr-g. I was young, self-centered and stupid as f–k, but if I knew then what I knew now, my life would probably be different.”
