French Montana does not see itself as responsible
French Montana does not see itself as responsible. In his statement via Twitter, he explains that he only celebrated his new CB6 mixtape with his friends in the restaurant. It should not have been a music video shoot.
Last night, I was in Miami celebrating the release of my CB6 mixtape w/ friends at a local restaurant. We unfortunately were at the wrong place, at the wrong time when an incident took place that left people hurt. Our thoughts & prayers are w/ the victims & families at this time
