Keith Murray’s interviews have gone viral after he boasted about sleeping with several female rappers…which they deny. N.O.R.E. says he is not inviting him to the show because he is worried about the state of the rapper’s mental health.
“We love Keith Murray, but let’s also be upfront,” said N.O.R.E. “We’re concerned. His mental health doesn’t seem that we could put him in this environment and smoke and drink. Now, if he can we gon’ do it. If he can sit. He can smoke. He can drink… we gon’ do it.”
“Or he doesn’t have to smoke or drink. We don’t wanna…the thing is we have responsibilities. We know there’s a certain amount of people that watch us every week, every month, every muthaf-ckin’ year, but why would we put a rap legend in jeopardy? And that’s what it’s feeling like.”
Murray was supposed to be on the show in January. Drink Champs faced backlash months back after airing an interview with Kanye West even though he had been making anti-semitic statements at the time. The interview was quickly removed.
