Exclusive: DJ Paul says the decision was "mutual for everyone."
DJ Paul says that Gangsta Boo is no longer a member of Da Mafia 6ix.
"Long story short of it all, we just wanted to do what was best for the fans and best for the group and what was going to make everybody happy,” DJ Paul says during an exclusive interview with HipHopDX. "We just think that it was the best move. It was mutual for everyone."
DJ Paul says that Gangsta Boo’s aspirations as a solo artist and outside of Da Mafia 6ix did not have an impact on her departure from the group. On Tuesday (May 27), Gangsta Boo released her Witch project with La Chat.
"You know her solo thing was in the making while the group was together, so it wasn’t nothing about that,” DJ Paul says. "It was what we thought was going to be best for everybody. It just happened. Nobody forced nobody. It was a gut feeling.”
DJ Paul, Gangsta Boo, Crunchy Black, Lord Infamous and Koopsta Knicca are five of the six members of Three 6 Mafia, which also includes Juicy J. The quintet assembled as Da Mafia 6ix last year while Juicy J was enjoying success as a solo artist.
Da Mafia 6ix was Lord Infamous’ idea, DJ Paul says. “He got me in touch with Koop, because he’s with Koop a lot,” DJ Paul said during an exclusive interview with HipHopDX in November. "Both of them still live in Memphis. Boo got in touch with Crunchy Black, but I see him a lot because he’s out on the West Coast. His number had got changed, so Boo got me in touch with him, and Lord found Boo for me.
"Lord kind of put the whole thing together, because it started out as something I had been talking about since the Skale-A-Ton album,” DJ Paul continued. "I was talking about doing another Come With Me To Hell album with me and Lord Infamous. But Lord was like, 'You know what? I don’t even want to do Come With Me To Hellright now if you’re thinking about doing a group album. I’d rather us do it as a group.' He really fought for the group, and I was like, 'Alright…cool.'”
In November, Da Mafia 6ix released its 6ix Commandments mixtape. Lord Infamous passed away in December.
In February, Da Mafia 6ix launched its Triple 6ix Sinners Tour. The group brought Lord Infamous’ casket on tour with them.
"I wanted him to be there,” DJ Paul said at the time. "I'm that kind of guy—a weird, kinda creepy kind of guy. I had to pay a lot of money to get an extended tour trailer that would fit his casket and all of the mercy."

well damn, i guess the rumors were true, i should have known this ? wasnt gon really last.

? like that happens. The person who brought all them back together dies and everybody probably just like let's stop bullshittin and get out each other way

Gangsta Boo is stupid af. This as relevant that she ever been in years (besides that Yelawolf song) & she blew it.
How you are going to be treating the fans bad when they are the ones to buy your product. I kinda see why Juicy & her had beef now, Juicy probably was like "she's a bit too ignorant". Sit yo ass down somewhere & enjoy it because if it wasn't for Paul putting her on then she'll still be Lola Mitchell -

I think either Peezy or someone else said yesterday that she was acting rude to the fans

i think yesterday in the 3 6 thread dude had said somebody was asking paul about it on twitter or youtube and he said something about the fans complaining. all this pretty much came outta nowhere to me i thought errthing was all good lol smh. im interested to see how that album will go, i was kinda feelin boo parts on murder on my mind and stash spot tho -
Who's worst? These ? or Bone Thugs?

Too close to call from me who's a fan of both and have most of their group efforts. Both had really high highs but mediocre to subpar joints since then. -
Kinda saw this coming, it never felt like they were all the way in on this new group ?

I think 3-6 really all low key hate each other, but will jump at the opportunity to make some money if they can.
Bone Thugs to me just seem like they get ? at they backyard cookout, ? start arguing and then somebody don't wanna be in the group til they sober up the next day. You know how old ? be when they ? at bar-b-q's and ? -
idk why i thought lord passing would make them even closer
i do get the vibe at times that koop and crunch back cool with paul cuz of better money purposes tho even tho they had started gettin along b4 last year a lil bit, juice and lord still got along with paul regardless, i wouldnt be shocked of paul had boo head boosted up or somethin, when they first all linked up it was him and her in all the interviews, i bet she thought she took juicy spot -
Again?!
These ? break up n reunite more than bone thugs
What gone happen with da mafia 6 album?
Lords death couldnt even keep em together
Three 6 back to bein a 3 man group. Paul, Koop n Crunchy -
well i hope now she knows that its never going to work wit them , so she can continue with whats left of career she thought she had ..oooohkillem
she don't really have much of a career without them tho. That Rumors mixtape she dropped a couple of years ago was dope but that was the last time she was relevant to me. It took Paul took bring her style back
I can tell she is arrogant because when she was in that interview with Paul & Juicy name was brought. I didn't like her vibe on how she was speaking on it & you can tell Paul wasn't feeling it either -
Wack. I'm disappointed
-
THAT MAFIA 6 TAPE WAS DOPE AS ?
THIS ? GB SEEMS VERY PROBLEMATIC THO
R.I.P. LORD INFAMOUS....THIS MAFIA 6 ? WAS NICE WHILE IT LASTED -
Boo kept sweatin all over the studio equipment and leavin the booth smellin like oil sheen
-
ehh her verses wasnt dat strong on da Mafia 6ix mixtape anyway she's beyond washed. Like T Sanford said dis was da most buzz she had in years i heard 1 of da tracks she made wit La Chat nd ? was awful shorty is delusional to think she has a shot at a solo career in 2014. Also DJ Paul needs to link up wit old HCP members cuz a mixtape wit him crunchy nd koop aint gonna hit cuz Koop is WAY too inconsistent in his verses to be da 2nd option lls

I knew there were unresolved issues after the power interview
paul looked a lil uncomfortable and she was still a lil heated at juicy -
These ? are just like Bone, at this point who gives a ? ......stop getting back to together just to break up lol...
