SXSW: PyRexx tears up about how Sevin supported him in jail

Houston-based rapper PyRexx received an abundance of support several months ago when he went to jail for charges which were later dropped, and he told Rapzilla at SXSW 2016 how much God Over Money artist Sevin’s helping hand had meant to him.

“I mention [Sevin] because, when I was in jail — Sevin, Tre9, Bryann [Trejo], all these guys — Sevin reached out to me and reached out to my wife and was like, ‘Hey, anything you need, I got you. Whatever bill you want me to cover till you get out, I’ma pay for it,’ stuff like that. It touched me.

“I get tears in my eyes now because I ain’t had that. I ain’t had these gangstas, they’re supposed to be my partners, to have my back, to check on my family, to take [my son] JoJo for the weekend, stuff like that, man. It’s real. And I appreciate that dude. And I’ma forever be loyal to him because I’m a definition of Thorough Breadz, and that’s just being thorough with the people you love — the people that you don’t even have to know them but you meet them and, now, they’re a part of you. …

“I love the way God has put people in my life the way he did, and has utilized not the wrong people, but the right people to place in my life to sharpen me in areas.”

When PyRexx was released from jail, he transitioned to leading Disciple The Streets, a program under Tre9’s ministry Eyes on Me Incorporated.

“I do a lot of one-on-one conversations with people, lifting them up, discipleship programs,” PyRexx said. “LCG is called Life Change Group, and it’s basically one-on-one, I’m meeting up with you every week. I’m asking you questions. ‘Have you been doing this? Have you been watching porn? What is your flaws? What’s happening with you? Have you been praying? Who you been praying for?’ …

“2 Corinthians 5:17-21 states that we have a ministry and we have a message. The message is the Gospel. The ministry is everybody that you know in your life.”

PyRexx mentioned Disciple The Streets in his latest single, “Open It”, which can be streamed on Rapzilla.com.
