N.O.R.E. has recently been dealing with a sexual assault lawsuit from Carmen Bryant, but he also had time to respond to other narratives around him online. For months now, he's been arguing with Queens-based content creator and food reviewer Sober Facts, and he finally confronted him in-person about his use of the N-word.
As caught by Hollywood Unlocked on Instagram, Noreaga pulled up on Sober Facts, real name Jason Rodriguez, while he was filming a food review on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. "He thought I was a dude he ain't gon' see, but now I run up on him," he remarked to the camera. Sober Facts tried to deflect and say he's just trying to make it as a creator, while the rapper said he could've "did him filthy." He said he wanted to keep it positive and emphasize that no one should say the n-word and told him to stop recording.
Jason Rodriguez later posted a video in response to the hip-hop media personality, bringing up his issues with N.O.R.E. for his substance use. He said the rapper kept interrupting him and not letting him speak, and said he was being hypocritical with his n-word criticism.
However, it seems like Sober Facts deleted this initial response and posted another one. "I don't even want to use the word anymore," he said. "I'm really just trying to end this s**t, this whole back-and-forth... We both from Queens. I dead-a** listen to N.O.R.E.'s music, bro... Honestly, I got to give credit. Your boy N.O.R.E. out here running marathons. He's trying, he's getting better. I can see that... We just out here trying to make it... That's not something you can fake."
N.O.R.E.'s Beef With Sober Facts
Jason Rodriguez talked about his history with substance abuse as well. He got emotional while talking about these experiences, showing the context behind this situation.
Elsewhere, N.O.R.E. has other beef to handle, and he still has some drama to resolve concerning other hip-hop personalities, creators, and artists. We will see if this is the end of this months-long debacle with Sober Facts, which seems like it will be the case.
