Fivio Foreign is being roasted online for not checking his sources before commenting on a false report regarding an NBA player.
On Sunday (November 12), parody sports account NBAĆentel shared a video of a person who loosely resembles Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry. In the clip, the person can be seen puffing on a blunt and sipping on lean, which, according to the Twitter profile, resulted in him being cut from the team.

The 33-year-old rapper was quick to respond to this, quoting the post and writing: “I thought the weed was legal inna NBA now ?? Wtf.. & dat ain’t lean dats medicine. bro had a cold.”
“Bruh lmfaooo. Aint no way you believe this?” one person wrote under the New Yorker’s comment, while another added: “Bro got fooled by a fake page.”
The source account also quoted his oblivious reaction, writing: “‘Bro had a cold.’ [three crying emojis]”

Fivio Foreign isn’t always on the receiving end of trolling, having done some himself. Last year, he made it clear that he won’t be letting up on Ma$e anytime soon as he teased a new record that sampled one of the Harlem native’s classic records.
He took to Instagram and shared a since-deleted post of himself sitting in the studio with a woman while a new song played in the background. The track in question took from Ma$e’s 1997 classic, “What You Want” featuring Total.
The “Big Drop” MC cracked a grin while romancing the woman on his lap captioned the clip: “What you want from me ?”
Fivio’s use of the sample came after he alleged that the former Bad Boy Records rapper had him locked into a questionable recording contract with RichFish Records.

During his visit to Gillie Da Kid and Wallo’s Million Dollaz Worth Of Game in 2022, the Brooklyn native spoke about a $5,000 advance he received from Ma$e after signing to the label.
The rap veteran himself addressed the situation during his own appearance on the podcast, claiming that although he did give Fivio $5,000 to start off with, the drill rapper received up to $750,000 in total.
