I don't normally notice these things but the interviewer done a brilliant job.

[@Consistent30]

san eee trust me he rid the interview very well

[@autumnleaves7872]

Facts, it made Morrison be more natural and genuine too

[@ViralVidz21]

I don’t really like how much he smiles 😂

[@EveryDay-fc1fy]

Latest Lyrics think he’s just excited

[@kaynetrowbridge9267]

Morrison always been hard since abbey school days

[@BangBang-go2kw]

The interviewer is a G, never asked any incriminating questions or anything Morrison couldn’t answer

[@jaydendavies5083]

😂😂😂😂😂 it’s mad he still vaguely talks bout the hood

[@JL-nk1pc]

he incriminates himself enough in his lyrics.

[@UNITDW]

J L nah not really, he’d have to talk about committing specific crimes that they could link him to so they could arrest and charge him with suspicion of committing that crime. Him chatting about shotting coke or whatever isn’t incriminating coz anyone could say that.

[@JL-nk1pc]

@@UNITDW but it would still be used as evidence in a prosecution.

[@UNITDW]

J L yeah but it won’t hold up, Morrisson is rich enough to get a very very good lawyer and unless he has sufficient evidence suggesting he’s committed a specific crime to go alongside using his bars as evidence, the case would be thrown out immediately. The only way that guy goes to jail with his wealth is through forensics, a paper trail, snitches or informants. He isn’t stupid enough to snitch on himself for clout.
