Apparently, Gillie Da Kid was quite the dancer back in the early 2000s. That's at least what appears to be the case in Ludacris' music video for his iconic hit, "Move B*tch." That became a topic of discussion during his and Wallo's July 27 episode of Million Dollaz Worth Of Game which featured Ciara.
As caught by Complex, Gillie brought up out he used to frequent a night club called Dances in his hometown of Philadelphia. That's when CiCi made the joke about him twerking in the aforementioned visual. They begin talking about it around the 21-minute mark.
The Gillie look-alike appears towards the end of the music video throwing it back on top of a bar. "He was popping it. That was him Wallo quipped adding that it was "back in the day."
"I can't believe CiCi [did] GG like that. Goddamn," Gillie said. Wallo piled on again with Ciara, "Dancing is in our family, though. That's how he was."
Gillie affirmed that it wasn't him though, replying, "Man, you know goddamn well that ain't me." But his co-host didn't let up. "You know, Atlanta do something to people," he said while adding that Gillie got "drunk" and "forgot" he did that. "
"[He] put the stank in that dance" and was a "dancing machine," Wallo quipped.
Hilariously, this is not the only time Gillie has had to shut down this rumor. The outlet mentioned that a video of him surfaced interacting with a fan whose cousin thought the same.
In other news regarding the Philly native, he's been having to respond to some more heated matters. Lately, he's been beefing with former NFL quarterback Cam Newton over Eagles QB, Jalen Hurts. With the rapper and podcaster being a huge fan of the team, he holds the Super Bowl winner in high regard.
However, he's also biased at the same time. Cam, who doesn't have any allegiance to the NFC East team, doesn't think Hurts is top 10 great. This angered Gillie, influencing him to call out Cam for not winning a Lombardi Trophy.
"I seen you came at me because I said Jalen Hurts did what you couldn't do. That was when a Super Bowl. So you want to get all in your feelings? Man, shut your tight jeans wearin' a*s up, man. You had on a jersey with a bow tie, you corny a*s n****! You will never be able to fuck with Jalen Hurts, n****, you super goofy, corny a*s n****!"
Cam clapped back on his 4th&1 platform, trashing his music career. Johnny Manziel has also gotten involved, backing Cam and threatening to slap Gillie.

There is no question that Clipse’s Let God Sort Em Out made a serious impact and continues to hold weight. The project showed that hip hop is not limited by age and proved that a long-awaited return can still land in a major way regardless of the time away.
If you need a reminder, the Virginia duo’s fourth studio album debuted comfortably within the top five of the Hot 200. It secured the number four position and moved an impressive 118,000 units in its first week.
On top of that, it picked up a win at this year’s Grammys, earning Best Rap Performance for “Chains & Whips.” The album also received four additional nominations, including Best Music Video, Rap Album, and Album of the Year.
It is hard to believe the project will officially hit its one year mark this summer on July 11. Even so, Pusha T is making it clear that both supporters and critics should not be overlooking it anytime soon.
While performing at Coachella yesterday, King Push told the crowd that LGSEO still sits at the top, regardless of genre.
He said, “‘Let God Sort Em Out’ is still the album of the motherfckin year. Whole new year, still album of the year,” per Kurrco. “Album of the motherfcking year until we drop again. We don't care who dropping. It don't matter.”
That is a strong statement for obvious reasons, especially considering the recent claims surrounding Push himself.
Over the same weekend, hip hop social media lit up after several alleged reference tracks connected to Quentin Miller and Push began circulating. Three tracks surfaced in total, but one that drew the most attention was an alleged record titled “Real Gon’ Come.” It is said to come from the DAYTONA era, around 2017 to 2018.
The situation gained traction because fans remember the past tension between Drake and Pusha T before Drake’s clash with Kendrick Lamar. During that feud, Pusha accused Drake of using ghostwriters on tracks like “Infrared,” which appears on DAYTONA. On that song, he raps, “The bigger question is how the Russians did it /
It was written like Nas, but it came from Quentin.”
Reactions have been mixed. Some people argue it is not a major issue since Miller’s alleged contributions were limited to hooks. Others point out that the songs were never officially released, so they see no real problem. Meanwhile, critics view it as clear hypocrisy on Pusha T’s part, a perspective that DJ Akademiks has also supported.
