Killer Mike it’s all about trees … and we don’t mean the Christmas variety.
The rapper, activist and marijuana mogul from Atlanta joined us on “TMZ Live” and showed why blacks deserve a big chunk of cannabis pie.
The way Killer Mike sees it … the popularity of ganja in America was largely built on the backs of black people, so he says they deserve at least 25% of the industry – profits, licenses, business, etc.
While legalization and decriminalization continue to gain momentum at the state level, one criticism is the lack of access by minorities to make money from a substance that has put so many behind bars. Mike uses the ban to explain why we are making the same mistake twice here.
Killer Mike is also putting pressure on the elected president Joe Biden to be like Bernie Sanders and a promise to decriminalize the damp … and he shares his protest plans for April 20, the unofficial stoners’ holiday.
It’s very enlightening … Mike tells us about his new weed strain and why he likes to light with Indicas.
