IN HIS OWN WORDS collects previously unseen footage from an exclusive interview with XXXTentacion conducted by FADER Films in 2017. The conversation on his success, violent criminal history, and much more is interwoven with intimate moments the rapper shared with those closest to him, including his mother Cleopatra Bernard and his manager Solomon Sobande.

“Cleopatra, Solomon, and I watched the FADER-Jahseh one-on-one interview from 2017," Rob Stone said in a statement. "It was emotional, chilling, insightful, and tragic on a multitude of levels. It instantaneously brought us closer together. It feels only right to share it with his fans and the world, Jahseh in his own words.”
