Sitting down with the early morning trio, Vince opens up about his feelings on Hip-Hop biopics, why he kind of doesn’t believe all those allegations against Michael Jackson, and what he thinks about being called a sellout.

5. Michael Jackson

Vince doesn’t really have an opinion about whether Michael Jackson molested those kids or not but says his man Ab-Soul went to Neverland Ranch as a kid and told him he didn’t see anything funny while he was there.
