Brandon Barnes Explains Why He Took Shots at Lil Wayne

Brandon Barnes from “Growing Up Hip Hop Atlanta” sat down with Pootah TV for an interview, and this interview got out to his cast, causing anger.

During this interview he explained how he felt about Reginae after their incident at Zonnique’s photo shoot. He actually likes her and her personality. He just felt that Reginae overstepped her boundaries, not knowing why he approached Zonnique critically about her outfits.

…Reginae and I are alike in a lot of ways. We both are very opinionated; that’s just that. We are both very passionate when it comes to things that we love. Reginae is actually my favorite cast member on the show, because she is gonna say what she wants to say, and she is a say it like you mean it kind of person. I am too.

The problem started because I felt like Reginae didn’t mind her business. You see what I am saying?

It’s all good that you’re taking up for your friend, but you’re taking up for your friend not necessarily knowing what happened.

But other than that, it’s no disrespect.

Brandon also explained why he said what he said about Lil’ Wayne. He said he knew this would get under her skin so that’s why he sad it. Brandon also he got offended when Reginae questioned his credentials in the business, since he feels he is the hardest working GUHHATL cast member.

To be completely honest… That was a statement made out of anger. Reginae and I… we knew of each other. …Well, we probably met two times before the show.

So with her not fully full-blown knowing me, but I knew more about her because she was way bigger than me. She’s been on the internet… I knew how to push her buttons but I never would have went there. She said the one thing that got to me; “Who are you? You are nobody.”

I didn’t like the way that made me feel, because I helped put this cast together for one. Deb’s my God-Mom, but I’m still sitting her in this room with all of y’all. And not to mention, once again it’s not just Reginae.

In all honesty, I would probably outwork all of y’all.

Why? Because I’m sitting here, you see what I’m saying. [I’m] going to continue to sit here with y’all. That’s what it was for me.

  1. I think it was pretty clear that he shaded Wayne to upset Reginae and I mean it did work. But my thing still is don’t dish it if you can’t take it. Reginae did come for him first.

  2. He said on Twitter that the full interview being released would vindicate him but it didn’t. This was a messy interview and he shouldn’t be surprised any of them feels some type of way about what he said.

  3. I just don’t understand why people like this messy queen. He’s so condescending to everyone else and you would think he had Diddy’s resume the way he talks about himself. I get that Reginae can be a bit much, but how do you not like her and love Brandon? He’s way worse than she is.
