(AllHipHop News) It appears Russ is done letting other rappers push the “f*ck Russ” campaign. The Zoo album creator stopped by The Breakfast Club to talk about his new LP, but the conversation also included the Columbia recording artist addressing some of his peers.
Charlamagne Tha God specifically asked Russ about Lil Pump, Smokepurpp, and Yung Bans trolling the 26-year-old rhymer/producer. According to Russ, he had to check either Purpp or Bans in person.
“Those two kids are clowns,” stated Russ. “We caught one of them at a festival. That motherf*cker knows what time it is.”
He continued, “I’m gonna tell you right now. If they respond, they know what time it is. We got video too. I’ll leak the video of you getting your ass beat, so I suggest you tread carefully.”
Russ claimed once the incident happened the individual stopped posting about him. It should be noted that Smokepurpp did delete a disrespectful tweet aimed at Russ that made a lot of headlines in 2017.
Additionally, the Power 105.1 interview included Russ discussing the promotion of drug usage in Hip Hop. He also called on social media users to stop spreading negativity to artists because hurtful internet culture can lead to depression.
“I’m gonna be done with this super soon. This whole industry is not for me,” said Russ. “That’s why I called the album Zoo. This zoo that is fame is not a place for breeding healthy minds.”
Russ was recently hit with a torrent of messages from people saying they wish he had died instead of Mac Miller. The “Kill Them All” performer added, “You know what’s really screwed up? Y’all the same people who will rob someone of their peace of mind while they’re alive, but when they die [you’ll] wish them to rest in peace. How you gonna wish that I rest in peace but don’t want me to live in peace?”
