“Went to a shop with the bro and [they] posted some random hidden camera footage for some weird reason…Likes, clout, proof we were there? I don’t know but it is weird…someone that knows bounds wouldn’t do this,” he noted.
“Nothing in your mind said that wasn’t weird? Ain’t even know they were being recorded and then you upload it?…I will keep ‘complaining’ about this cause I’m not one of them passive… I will tell you when I don’t like it,” he added.
