IN THIS CANDID CONVERSATION WITH OZONE’s JULIA BEVERLY AND RADIO PERSONALITY DEVI DEVI, HOUSTON’S RESIDENT RAP COMEDIAN SLIM THUG TALKS LOSING HIS VIRGINITY, BABY MAMA DRAMA, SWINGERS, SEX TAPES, AND HOW TWITTER RUINEd HIS RELATIONSHIP. Julia Beverly: Who responded to your mock Craigslist ad [for sex]? Slim Thug: It was some decent chicks that actually hit me back, for real. It was like over 200 responses. They were for real though. They were saying, “I’m married, so it’s going to be confidential” and all this. They were serious. You can tell muthafuckers really do that shit. I ain’t respond to nobody though. I swear to God I ain’t respond. That shit was funny as fuck. JB: So you said men are superior to women. Slim: Of course. That’s how it was made, right? The woman is supposed to serve the man. Y’all trying to change up shit. Men are supposed to pay the bills. It’s like, if you get a flat [tire] I’m going to change your tire. If I’m hungry, cook me something to eat. The fuck? That’s what men do, that’s what women do. Devi Dev: Is it hard to date a woman who follows you on Twitter? Slim: Yes. Me and my ex broke up because of Twitter, kind of. She says that I say too much wild stuff on Twitter. Twitter is just funny to me. I say wild random shit to make people laugh, you know. I ain’t going to change. I think the best thing about Twitter is that people don’t get my jokes. That’s the funniest thing to me. People believe I was on Craigslist actually looking for chicks? For somebody to be that dumb to believe that, that’s the funny part. Today people started hitting me back after I wrote “all black dudes should fuck a white chick for MLK today.” I got all kinds of responses from muthafuckers with dreads that were on some real [MLK] stuff, like, “You fucking coon!” That shit is funny to me, that’s the funny part of Twitter. Devi: What do your DMs look like on a daily basis? Slim: My DMs are pretty light. I don’t really follow nobody. I only follow the people who tweet me. I’ve slept with maybe, no more than five girls that I met off Twitter. Can’t be more than that. I doubt it was five. I’ve been on Twitter for like three years.

Devi: So how does something like that unfold? Do you get a DM like, “Oh Slim, I love you so much!”? Slim: Nah, it ain’t even about that. It’s just [convenient] because you don’t need nobody’s phone number. You can just meet a girl on Twitter. Maybe somebody retweeted a picture of her, or you see a chick that you saw out somewhere and just follow them and it goes from there. Devi: Break it down for me. This feels like To Catch A Predator. How did your interaction go from Twitter to the bedroom? JB: Was it like, “Hey, do you want to come to my house tonight?” Or was it a little more conversation involved? Devi: Did she check in on FourSquare? “Fourth person, I’m now the mayor of @SlimThugga’s house”? Slim: (laughs) Nah, it don’t be like that. It’s just like meeting somebody out [at a club]. You see somebody on Twitter; you see their picture. A lot of the pictures are false advertisement, though. So I don’t go off just the picture. Maybe I saw them in the club before but I don’t have their phone number, or I know one of their friends. You know, “Hey, what’s up?” JB: Do you meet girls on Facebook too? Slim: Whatever I tweet goes to Facebook, but I don’t actually [log on] Facebook. Maybe we need to check out that Facebook. [to J-Dawg] Fool, you on Facebook? JB: So the ex you just mentioned, was that the girlfriend you were talking about in the article that got a lot of black women upset with you? Slim: Right. But she was black. I never stopped dating black women. I’ve never been in a relationship with a white woman. JB: So she was half white and half black? In that Vibe interview, didn’t you say her white half was the one that cooks for you, or something like that? Slim: Right, that was a joke. If you don’t get it, you don’t understand my humor. People don’t understand a lot of the things I say because of my sense of humor. Damn near everything I said in [that interview] was meant to be funny. I was saying I had a black girlfriend, and my
