Lil Baby finally broke his silence on that famous photo of NBA player Kyle Kuzma and Michael Rubin hugging him at Rubin's white party last year. A lot was made of the image, and many presumed something sexual went on.
The Atlanta rapper spoke about it on Lil Yachty's A Safe Place podcast and said the photo really got under his skin. "Even the whole Mike Rubin thing, I don’t play with n-----s, period. On no funny, weird s--t," said Baby.
"Even when the picture came out, before it went viral, I talked to him like 'Mike, I can't have pictures like that even though me and you playing,'" he continued. "It's a hundred people at the party. We're in the middle of a hundred people. There's nothing weird we could be doing at the party with all these people watching us."
Baby went on to say that he asked Rubin to pull footage from cameras to show the hug was the result of horseplay. But "The Bigger Picture" rapper later decided not to post the footage, believing it would only make matters worse.
"I ain't even trying to make it into this and make it into that. Just keep on going," Baby explained. "But certain s--t, like all that s--t, really bother me."
Meanwhile, Yachty's podcast is back after he canceled it in August. He decided to stop filming the show after being accused of trying to embarrass his friend and co-host Mitch," which he denied.
In regards to Lil Baby, let's see if his explanation stops the memes and false narratives surrounding the Rubin, Kuzma photo.
