“Man, yo, I’ma look into this, ’cause I don’t really know all the way what this means, but I appreciate them having my favorite rapper, that I grew up bumping, read this sht and give it to me man,” Mike WiLL Made-It expressed in the clip. “And to have T.I. at my muthafckin’ birthday man, my brothers in here, they know what the sh*t means.”
