Reporting on the fallout from the interview \u201cThe Joe Budden Podcast\u201d host said that when the online furore was happening, he purposefully skipped it since it\u2019s not \u201ctheir place\u201d to talk about it. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He also added that every time he speaks about those kinds of topics, he gets dragged online.<\/p>\n

The controversial podcaster also took the opportunity to apologise to the \u201cPressure\u201d singer for his inappropriate question where he asked if \u201c someone f****** you good right now?\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked by Van if he owed Ari an apology, MacG said: \u201cDefinitely, 100% man. In the beginning, I didn\u2019t see anything wrong with what I said. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut after watching your podcast last week with Rachel and watching Charlamagne\u2019s \u2019Breakfast Club\u2019 and the comments that they were saying about this whole thing. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI actually sat back, I\u2019m like, \u2019actually their on to something\u2019, especially Rachel. I think, for me, I was looking in terms of if it\u2019s in a lyric, then I can ask whatever it is. Nothing is off-limits.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut what I think I learned from this is that it\u2019s not what you\u2019re asking but how you\u2019re asking it.<\/p>\n
