Rappers Meek Mill and Gucci Mane were seen courtside with Patriots owner Robert Kraft at Game 2 of the Celtics-76ers series in Boston. The moment went viral because of how comical the three looked on the broadcast.
It was like the two rappers were chatting while Kraft was sort of awkwardly in between them. Many fans on Twitter were wondering what was happening.
Well, now we know. Mill gladly told Sports Illustrated‘s Crossover TV what they were talking about.
Mill said to SI, while explaining that Kraft already knew Gucci because he once performed at one of New England’s Super Bowl parties:
“I was telling Gucci, ‘Robert a real dude, man.’ Seriously, he came to visit me in jail, he spoke out for me. He has a lot of influence. I’m like, ‘He’s a real dude.’ … (Robert Kraft) was saying how nice of a guy Gucci was and Gucci came over, and I was telling Gucci I respect Kraft.”
Mill added that he saw the jokes about how it looked like he was going to fight Gucci Mane. That’s now what was going on, though. They were simply sharing how much they respected each other.
