I work with black middle school kids all day, None of them listen to this Lil X . The guy’s a clown and scumbag. He say “F” your kids and gets a pass, dances and glorifies Satan the embodiment of evil and gets a pass, makes Satanic shoes and is applauded. It lets me know who is who in this entertainment business and what they really support and push on black people.
