In the early hours of morning Sunday morning, I found myself in Encino, California, on the set of French Montana’s “Buko Money.” The Lex Luger produced record features Slim Thug and is found on French’s new mixtape with DJ Holiday, Casino Life: Mr. 16. Also on the set was the man who has had an interesting (and fortunate) week to say the least, Waka Flocka Flame.

During some down time, I asked him about the shooting last week in Charlotte at his tour bus. Obviously frustrated with other things going on, he quickly responded, “I’m not discussing that.” However, when I informed him that the shooters had been arrested, his only comment was simply, “I didn’t know that.” It was a weird moment because you could sense the surprise in his voice and because it is a clear indication that he was shocked by the news.
