You gotta chill.” Another Twitter use chimed in, “He was definitely special, inspiring, smart, intelligent but I don’t think Jesus smoked black n [milds]. I could be wrong though.”
Dupri read through the disparaging comments and responded by writing, “It’s very interesting to me that when a person is sick everyone is quick to ask someone for their prayers, with hope that it heal the pain, but when I say I feel like Nip was Jesus, I’m crazy.” He continued, “I just heard @JoeBudden say Nip was Jesus as well, are we both crazy? Btw anyone that’s saying I’m reaching or I’m crazy, clearly doesn’t believe in a higher power and I’m cool with that, but I do!! and I have felt it many of times.”
