The Philadelphia-based rapper had an original explanation for the remarkable choice of setting: “If I lose the ring yeah U will make fun of me more than putting it in my forehead ha ha jokes on you”. When he revealed the piercing, fans began to mock him for the “off center” appearance of the diamond, to which he replied via his Instagram: “Y’all keep talking about it’s off, it still has a long bar in it so it can move ‘cause of the swelling. When it goes down, it gon’ be right there”.
