The 21-year-old also says the feud between Ray J and Fabolous greatly affected Fabolous’ career.
“Remember when Fabolous was real, real hot? Then remember when he did that shit to Ray J?” he asks. “The last time I seen Fabolous, he had on the backwards jersey, being the man. Then, the next time I seen him, he was dressed like [nerdy Back To The Future character] Marty McFly.”
