He felt that way because of all the slack he gets online from Black people, and it doesn\u2019t make him even want to feel a part of the culture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey got mad when I said \u2018I don\u2019t support Black Lives Matter\u2019 \u2019cause who they matter to,\u201d Gates told Akademiks. \u201cWe kill each other all day. We talk about each other all day. You know who talk about me the most on the internet? N-ggas. N-ggas. You know what\u2019s worse than a n-gga? Two of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cMake you don\u2019t want to be a n-gga. It be n-ggas my own people that look like me. Talk about me like a dog, kick me when I\u2019m down.

Another one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Gates even went as far as agreeing with Stacey Dash\u2019s controversial comments about getting rid of BET during an interview he had with 106KMEL.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were like, \u2018Stacey Dash said that it shouldn\u2019t be no BET.
