I got faith in Ja, man.

Yeah, I don't think he's a bad person.

He comes from a good family.

I just think that he's just young, rich, and just made a mistake, man.

It happens.

But I do like what Pat Beverly said as far as him feeling like a lot of the music that these young athletes listen to encourage a lot of their behavior, because I do believe that.

And I'm from the hip hop community, so I'm allowed to speak on it.

Growing up, when we listened to, like I said, Doggie Style and Snoop, we wanted to drink 40 ounces.

I never knew what the fuck a 40 ounce was before I heard Snoop rap.

You know what I mean?

So I know that the music influences behavior.

It influences actions.

A lot of these young guys, the music they listen to is very violent.

very drug-induced, very drug-heavy shit.

Very misogynistic.

You know what I mean?

So it's just like, you know... And you're supporting her lifestyle.

We got to understand that, you know, a lot of the things, a lot of the energy and the words that we take in, it does have an effect on us.

It does have an effect on what we do.

So just be mindful of that, man.
