Wait, There’s More
In April 2019, rap star T.I. cut ties with Kodak Black. The King of the South scrubbed KB’s presence from his Trap Music Museum in Atlanta.
T.I. and Lauren go way back … they starred together in the 2006 movie “ATL.” Lauren played Tip’s love interest in the film. T.I. opened the museum back in September, and it shines a light on Atlanta’s music culture and the artists who helped shape trap music into its own sub-genre, including artists like 21 Savage, Rick Ross, Gucci Mane, Shawty Lo and Future.

Before You Go
Initially, Black came forward with an apology to both Nipsey and Lauren. However, he did take aim at anyone trying to clown him or check him over his initial remarks.
“If I disrespected you, Lauren London, in any shape or form, I’m sorry. Even though I didn’t. And rest in peace to dude. Y’all already know what I said. I said dude encouraged me to do sh*t for the community. But anyhow, my bad to them two. But for all you other people trying to fake-act like y’all are lil’ boying me on the Internet, or checking me on the Internet, that’s how you feel, bro. That’s how y’all wanna feel and I got a whole tour. I’m in Georgia right now. Tomorrow I’ll be in Norfolk, Virginia. Wherever y’all see me at, if that’s how y’all feel, that’s how y’all feel. Don’t try to lil’ boy me on the Internet.”
