Killer Mike says he fears for his life when outside of Atlanta.
Following the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile at the hands of police officers this week, Killer Mike appeared on Hot 107.9 to offer his thoughts on the shooting deaths of both men. The musician explained that although he feels safe in Atlanta, he fears for his life just 15 miles outside of the city.
“I’m just filled with hurt and grief…It is time to get angry and do something,” Killer Mike said. “It is time to prevent these abusers and these police that abuse the law…15 miles outside Atlanta, I’m afraid I will be murdered. And I’m tired of living in an environment where this city is the only place in this country I feel safe as a black person. People wonder ‘Why people love Atlanta so much? Why you come? You still poor.’ But we not running around worried that we’re going to be murdered in the street.”
In response to the shootings of Sterling and Castile, the rapper suggested that people stop giving their money to corporations who haven’t spoken out against police brutality.
“What we can do is go to your banks tomorrow,” he said. “You can go to your bank tomorrow. And you can say ‘Until you as a corporation start to speak on our behalf, I want all my money. And I’m taking all my money to Citizen’s Trust’…Apartheid ended in South Africa because students in America said ‘We not flying Delta anymore. We not drinking Coca-Cola anymore. We’re not supporting any corporation that supports the Apartheid and the enslavement of people that look like us.’ And I’m just saying once again…Take your money out of this dog’s hands. Out of their paws. Take your money.”

yeah right. he said that for some sales.
Educated Blacks don’t care about the hood. All these black don’t care about the black man. They always saying they at ish and they get scared of the black when they in the hood. Black women say they don’t make enough money to support there life style.
Educated blacks and black women are the real sell outs. get to know your ppl and support your community.
Exactly! These celebs want a war? Do it your damn selves. Stop encouraging us to riot etc. while they sit back and do nothing but post a hashtag or a “My thoughts and prayers . . ” line on social media. Celebs are so far removed from real society. Profiting from acting like they care.
You should be scared someone will shoot you because of those garbage albums you put out.
Like… is this totally the place to like discuss this?
Dope lyricist but the devil likes us separated and confused.

You are the devil. Act like a savage, get put down like a savage. Regardless of race or if a police officer. Idiot
Lotta you white fans just listen to Hip Hop because you like to memorize lyrics and pretend you’re cool. It’s to the point where you think you know what it’s about more than we do. Stay outta grown folks conversations if it’s too heavy.
I like to wear clothing that doesn’t fit me, not have a college education, date fat white women I am embarrassed about and have a criminal record. I also like not speaking Wnglish correctly and bitching about how everyone is keeping me down and murdering me for no reason when I am a wannabe gangster convicted felon. I sound cool, right? I just recited every lyric ever.

I got AIDS from your mom, Whiteboy. And I also butt fucked your gay ass dad raw. I needed the money. He paid big dollars for the baby dick. That’s where the AIDS came from, Drake fan.
hip hop isn’t music just dumb dribble from uneducated losers and if you listen to it then you are the idiot i think you are.
no talent required. poor little boy you so mistreated by everyone.
He’s way more likely to be killed by another black man than a police officer.
For a nigga named killa mike,nigga sound like bitch
This dumb nigga said “Its time to get ANGRY and DO something”. I bet we will see this homo going around and shooting cops because of his hatred towards white people. This mf is full of Hate and Racism, just like most of these Black Lives Matter racists. Black people kill each other senseless every day, and nobody goes to the ghetto to Protest. Fucking Hypocrites.
lmao your a true dumbass sir
Why insult the man’s character because he speaks the truth?! And if he does go around shooting cops…what of it?! We are murdered by these bitch ass pigs daily and if you think we are wrong for standing up against this racist system…I cordially invite you to eat a black dick! God bless the Revolutionary!!! Revolutionaries may lose their bodies…but never their lives…We are SPIRIT and I honor the Holy Spirit of the fallen Revolutionary!
Rascist system? Lol. I agree. After miracle action is some racist shit. Hiring quotas as well. A 17 year old Mexican kid was shot 17 times last month for throwing rocks at a cop car. Is that all over the news? The police shoot 7x as many whites and Latinos than they do blacks. Any comment on that? So murdering public servants is somehow OK because one guy told a cop he had a gun when he could have just taken a ticket and not said shot about the gun, or simply stopped reaching when instructed to do so. The other was a convicted felon in possession of a firearm resisting arrest. Still nothing about the 27 year old Mexican kid right? You racist piece of shit.
you are truly a complete moron. get the fuck out of this country if you don’t like it. i am sure you would fit in well back in africa, not. they would spit in your face in your so called motherland. Police go out and protect idiots like you every day and you think it’s the police that are bad. when a law enforcement officer tells you to do something you do it dumbass. If you resist then you are responsible for whatever happens after that. blacks kill blacks all over the U.S. especially in Hussein Oslama’s beloved chicago but we don’t hear shit about you bruthas killing each other or all the asians, mexican and whites blacks murder and rob every day. Why don’t you call that stupid bitch jesse jackson or al sharpton and you all can sit around and whine and bitch about how bad we be done got it. jesse jackson is a parasite as well as that freak al boy. you got your boy elected and hasn’t he just done a wonderful job running the country in the ground and causing race hatred the muslim piece of shit. i hope you enjoy my post now fuck off

Whenever anything happens to another ethnic group he could care less.
Do whites care about other races than there own? We all know the answer to that question, dont we hypocrite.
Dumbass. All of the MEDiA covering this, including this website, is white. Idiot. Half of those protesters are stupid white folk, along with the stupid black folk, who have been tricked into this self segregating bullshit like you have. Dummy
Abso-f***ing-lutely! But go ahead and tell me that I’m lying.
@ smh . White? Full blooded aztec. I’m a first generation Mexican american from south gate. Your white as$ have no idea what struggle is. I checked your Ip address son, you live in Wyoming. Laramie lol
these rappers always exaggerate stuff when things happen mike please stop it
Hey, celebs! Stop making everything about yourselves! And stop inciting riots if you’re not going to be in the forefront. Celebs are are so far removed from society that it’s ridiculous. Make a song or post on social media about how “we need to . . ” but then that very celeb just sits back and watches the people that they influence to either go to jail or get shot and killed and then it’s a whole new hashtag. If you celebs want a war, do it your damn selves! I’ve got work in the morning and a family to feed.
He’s a lot more likely to get curledby lil’ Mookie down the block then a cop..
Nothing like a bunch of white racists on a hip hop website’s message board. Why are you even here? Shouldn’t you be on the Clay Aiken or Donald Trump website? Buncha white fa@@ots who want to steal all black culture, including hip hop, but then spout off your racist bullshit on here when the racist society you and your parents created is questioned. Yall are all sad as fuk.
Right. Because before the whites and J E W S you wouldn’t sell a single record. Who runs the record stores and websites? This website actually? Who invented the program and computer you are typing on? People who accept ALL races and are willing to work with and make money off of whoever. Rethink your life, before you end up in prison or dead my brother.
Pretend DJ says what?
Says the pretend negro lmao
Good police out having to follow a bunch of idiots protesting good police work around the country. fuck all you idiots
Pigdick tastes delicious, just like my own ass
