Southside has responded to the backlash he and G Herbo have received for their explosive interview with Funny Marco.
The 808 Mafia producer and Chicago native joined Funny Marco’s Open Thoughts on Monday (October 16), but Marco has since claimed things were a lot more contentious than the skit interview led on, alleging that he was called a “bitch” multiple times and that the pair broke his $30,000 watch.
At one point G Herbo even threw his cup after slugging another shot of booze at Funny Marco but claimed he meant no harm or disrespect. “@funnymarco REALLY MY FRATERNAL TWIN NOBODY KNOW,” Herbo wrote.
Southside hopped on social media to clear the air about being painted as the bad guy in the exchange although he still rocks with Marco.
“If you a bitchass n-gga just stay the fuck from around me. I got enough bitches,” he said. “I don’t need more bitches around me… Just leave me the fuck alone. I don’t gotta be nobody’s friend. I’m rich, young, successful, I’m not a rapper. I’m a producer, I don’t have to do fucking interviews.
“For a n-gga to get on there saying he’s scared, you a hoe. You ain’t have to put it out hoe-ass n-gga. Now I really want to press you because you a bitch. You a grown man… Herb wasn’t even doing nothing to that man. That’s how them folks play. It’s cool for a n-gga to get on there and say slick shit to a n-gga.”
He continued: “I fuck with Marco. Marco is still my n-gga. I don’t think he was uncomfortable. I think bro was all the way good. If he was uncomfortable it’s like alright, damn Marco, we didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable.”

Southside went on to claim that the watch in question was fake but he’s willing to replace it with a real one and a chain.
“He mad about his watch. Marco, I got a watch you can come get… And it’s real because that shit I threw wasn’t real… That shit was fake as fuck… It’s nothing, I’ll give you a real new watch. My kids wear them shits like they ain’t nothing… You want a watch and a chain? We’ll give you a watch and a chain. We got you.”

However, Funny Marco didn’t appreciate the disrespect and took to Facebook on Monday to voice his frustration and clarify a few things regarding the interview gone bad with his fans.
“I understand a lot of y’all mad about the interview,” he wrote. “I was upset while it was going on but I understand I got a job to do & one thing about me I respect people on my show.”
Marco also replied to a comment: “Naw they broke my 30k watch and calling me a bitch. I don’t talk to people like that.”
G Herbo and Southside teamed up for a pair of joint projects with 2018’s Swervo and 2019’s Still Swervin. If they release a third installment of the series, it’s unlikely the duo will make another appearance on Open Thoughts.
