“I wrote every lyric on my Shea Butter album, you worthless germ! I was completely shocked and have never in my life been asked such a distasteful and predatory question. Regardless of what the hell I wrote does not give you losers the right to justify the disrespect,” she said.

In a rejoinder when speaking to US podcasters Van Lathan and Rachel Lindsay in a recent episode of Higher Learning, MacG said he complied with the singer’s demands to delete some bits of the interview before airing it.
