Producer Just Blaze took to Periscope today to document being pulled over by the police. As Just explains in an additional livestreamed video, the police officer stopped him while he was out in a Lamborghini Huracan and asked him, “Is your car legit?” before asking for his license and registration. “I don’t believe that we should turn a blind eye to somebody doing something wrong just because they’re a person of color,” Just says in the second Periscope. “But you know what’s going on with our people right now. Why not address me as a little more of a human being, instead of me being a suspect off the bat?” According to Just, the police department sent an apology and “offered to buy him dinner.”
I’m being pulled over by police.
