Earlier this month, Project Pat offered up an explanation for Juicy J's distance from a Three 6 Mafia reunion. DJ Paul recently responded to the comments and discussed his relationship with his former rap partner.
During a recent interview with HipHopDX, DJ Paul revealed that it had been some time since the last time he spoke to Pat. Understandably, he seemed to be taken aback by his one time frequent collaborator's comments.
"People make it seem like a more big of a deal than it really was," DJ Paul said. "I haven't talked to him in four or five years, so I'm wondering what happened between November--when that [Da Mafia 6ix's 6ix Commandments] tape dropped--to November of this year, for you to just come out like 'Ah, I don't f--k with this dude, period' or 'F--k this dude' or whatever, within a year, when I haven't talked to or seen him in a year. I just don't know where some of the actions come from on that side. I don't even talk to him about this or that or whatever. So, the whole thing is funny to me."
Nonetheless, DJ Paul said he still has love for the "Sippin on Some Syrup" rapper.
"I got a lot of love for Pat and always will--we made a lot of hits together," he said. "You know, [Pat's] 'Don't Save Her,' I wrote and produced it for him. It's my voice on the hook. Me and Juicy produced Mista Don't Play [Everythangs Workin] with him, every single project--all his albums. Every single Project Pat album cover, I physically hand-drew and designed myself."
Taking Juicy J's recent success into consideration, DJ Paul admitted that he wasn't anticipating Juicy J working with the rest of the crew but, he's still got love for him, too.
"I already knew there wasn't gonna be no Three 6 Mafia reunion, so I hadn't never even spoke about that," he explained. "On my Instagram, when fans be asking, 'Is there gon' be a reunion,' I'll just be like, 'Probably not.' I mean, probably not if you're doing a song with some of these folks, like some of the people Juicy doing songs with. You know, he good, but you doing a song with Katy Perry or someone like that and you doing good, you ain't gonna be in no rush to go to no studio full of those niggas doing cocaine and arguing and fighting. Well, it's not like that anymore, but that's kinda how crazy the group was as he might remember then when we were all together 14 years ago.
"I've got so much for love for Juice, he could slap a family member or two and I still would ride on his side because most people be mad at their family members anyway. Not no kids or nothing, but I'd let him get away with a family member or two smacked."
