While promoting her new single and album, Trina talks Love & Hip Hop Miami rumors, dating Lil’ Wayne and more. Check some of the excerpts from the interview below.
On doing Love & Hip Hop Miami:
Well, I’ll come back up here and tell you if I decide to do it. Those are rumors. I did not smack anybody and I’m not filming. Do not believe the hype. When I come back up here, I will confirm to you whether or not I’m doing anything.
Her thoughts on reality television:
Um. I’m more private. This generation is so disrespectful and reckless. I didn’t come up in that type of stuff [reality TV]. You have to know what’s respect. Now everybody wildin’ out. My life is private, but it’s cool. I do normal stuff: I wake up, I cook. If I was to do that, you would probably see a side of me that will people would not think that would be me.
On being submissive in a relationship:
In a relationship, I am the person that you are not going to be thinking I am. I am not the Trina that you heard on the record. I am the Trina that is so great, that you are so much of a f*ck boy you mess it up.
Her thoughts on men that she would date:
I like cool guys. Guys who have respect and know how to treat a woman. Be nice, be romantic.
On dating younger men:
I would definitely date a younger man. Like you young, but you solid. Like he would have to have experienced some things.
On being in a four year relationship:
I am not going to be in anything for nobody, honey. I’ve been in a relationship for 4 years. Almost gotten married, almost thought I was having a kid. And when I left the relationship I was supposedly looked at as the craziest stupid person. I don’t care. You disrespected me, I’m out.
On dating Lil’ Wayne:
Wayne is a very great person and he never did anything wrong to me. The thing is, when I dated Wayne we were just real young. My album is out. Your album is out. It’s crazy. And by young, I mean, insecure. We weren’t mature enough to be in a full relationship.
On her beef with French Montana:
It doesn’t have to be a ‘I hate you. You hate me.’ I’m not a bitter person or whatever. He was a cool person. I just felt like as your friend, you kind of like was disappointing and disrespectful. I’ve moved on from that. He’s moved on from that so it’s not a big issue.
On her new album:
I talk about a lot on the new album. It’s more vulnerable, more personal. It’s fun, it’s sexy, it’s raw….At first I didn’t feel like it was complete, but now it is. The album is dropping in April.
On working with Rico Love on her new album:
I wouldn’t have been able to complete this album without Rico [Love]. Rico is just one of them guys that when it comes to music, he’ll let me be myself and speak about me evolving.
On working with Tory Lanez:
I was in Miami, at the studio and he came by with a couple of records. We did the records and that was it. It was dope!
On Trick Daddy’s comments:
It’s a good and bad part to it. I feel like what he said wasn’t so bad. It’s a lot of women that need to get their self together. Not because of a man, for yourself. I think him using a different race of women is what made it sound crazy.
On performing at Trump’s Inauguration:
No, it’s not about the money. I don’t even keep up with the Trump news because I’m still in shock that Obama leaving.
On what she’s working on besides music:
I have this record label called RMG (Rockstar Music Group). I have a couple of artists who I’m signing, some girls they’re so so dope. Besides that, there is some stuff that I’m doing for TV which I’m not really speaking on.
