Last week Chicago rapper King Louie was shot in the head. This week King Louie is on CNN talking to Don Lemon about gun violence–the very thing that led to King Louie’s nearly fatal experience.

Louie opens by telling Lemon,  “I feel blessed,” after which he explained that  reportedly 22 shots rang out but only seven hit him. “Three of the slugs are still with me today,” Louie went on. “Two in my chest and one in my head.” When asked by Lemon to explain what’s going on in Chicago, Louie simply stated that “the Devil’s working overtime.”

Watch the full interview below.

Georgia rappers Kap G and T.I. recently made an appearance on CNN to speak with anchor Don Lemon about the lyrics to their song, “La Policia.” The remixed track, also featuring rapper David Banner, speaks on the current national problem of the many deaths of blacks by the hands of police officers. The Mexican artist along with the Hustle Gang rapper defended their lyrics as not being ‘angry’, but serving the purpose of attempting to change the devastatingly unjust current events occurring today.

Check out the video of Kap G and T.I. speaking with Don Lemon below:

Talib Kweli made a memorable appearance on CNN earlier today. Seconds after the interview with Don Lemon started, things got heated as they discussed the coverage of Ferguson. Kweli criticized CNN’s reporting of the tragic incident. He was angered by CNN’s title “Ferguson streets were calm until bottles fly”[sic.] The rapper-activist emphasized that from his perspective, on that night, that title, and the piece that came with it was “wrong.” Kweli had been in the particular location the journalists reported on and explains that the police were not chasing down men as the article indicates. Instead, they were chasing men, women and children. At that particular moment, Lemon defended CNN by explaining that Kweli’s perspective is just one of many. Kweli was frustrated by Lemon’s repeated interjections as he, himself was saying that his view is his own and he is only responsible for that.
