[Bit 1]

So, usually, on the show, I come out,

and I talk about places I don't like.

That's what I do.

People understand that. People think it's funny.

But when I talk about where people are from,

some people don't enjoy that.

And I'm gonna tell you, my worst place

that I hate the most in all of America

is Rochester, New York, right?

That place can get blown to smithereens,

And three weeks ago on Kirtone, I said,

"Fuck Rochester, New York."

And I got an Instagram story, and I was tagged in.

I'm gonna read to you. This is what it said.

He said -- He said, "Suck a dick.

You pussy.

Fuck wherever you from.

I smoke your dads in your face."

I'm gonna translate that for white people now,

'cause a lot of y'all look confused.

He just said, "Hey, man, suck a penis.

Fuck your hometown."

and I'm gonna get a cigarillo, unravel it,

put weed in it, and smoke it

as if it was your dead homeboy.

That's what he said to me.

And so I responded.

I ain't hard to find.

And then I sent my tour dates after that.

And then he said, "Now, fuck you.

I ain't paying to see you.

You talking shit about my city."

And then he said, "Unless you get me here for free,

stop talking shit about Ron's life,

And I'm gonna tell you something.

I'm gonna tell you something about me, man.

I used to be a thug. I was a street nigga.

I was outside.

My thoughts don't stand up kindly that I changed my life.

I don't do that shit no more.

I'm a good power. I changed the leaf in my life.

I don't do that shit no more.

So I told him, I said, "Listen, brother,

next time I'm somewhere by you,

they send me your first and last name,

and I'll get you in the show for free, no problem."

And he said, "You do that for me?"

I said, "Yeah," he said, "Man, I'm a big fan

of what you do, man."

I just don't like that you were talking shit about my city

'cause I love my city.

I said, "I understand that, bro.

I get it 'cause I love my city, too,

and I hate somebody talking about my city.

I'm sorry."

Well, he doesn't know that when it comes to the show,

we gonna beat the shit out of him.
