Blackson spoke in detail about what went down with Ben Simmons on Shannon Sharpe’s podcast.

“He didn’t try to holla at one of my chicks, if he tried to holla at one of my sidechicks it wouldn’t matter. He tried to holla at my fiancé,” Blackson told Shannon Sharpe adding that Simmons knew he was engaged to her.

“Knew. One hundred percent knew,” the comedian answered. “The thing about it, when it first happened, when she told me—’cause I remember one time, you know, me and Ben… She asked him about it like, ‘Isn’t Mike your friend?’ He denied it. Denied our friendship.”

Blackson says Simmons was like a brother.

“From the day he got drafted to us hanging out, parties, this, going to games together, I would fly out—he was like, my homie, he was my little brother, my little light-skinned brother,” Blackson added. “I don’t have to roast him anymore, the whole world is roasting him.”

Ben Simmons is now an engaged man himself, but clearly it’s not water under the bridge for Blackson.
