Killer Mike wrote an op-ed to Billboard in which he detailed the media’s sensationalism of the violence in Baltimore as well as his personal thoughts on the situation. He recently was invited to the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner by Arianna Huffington and spoke on that experience as well.
When I first heard I’d been invited to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, I thought my publicist had gone insane. Surely it must be a mistake, but it was real. When they said I couldn’t bring my wife, I said, “I ain’t going.” But my wife, Shay, said, “You’re taking your black ass to the White House.”
