Back in 2014, O.T. Genasis spoke with VladTV about his past life in the streets, revealing that he got heavily involved by the time he was 19. He says his prime motivation was money, yet the issue of snitching was a recurring problem that found him in the county jail on five different occasions. He believes that snitching comes from people getting involved in the streets that aren't really made for it, thus anytime the police apply pressure they fold.
