Watch the full interview below…

In the interview below, Killer Mike discusses two of his ‘Trigger Warning’ social experiments: Crip-a-Cola and The Church of Sleep.

The ‘Crip-A-Cola’ experiment was sparked by Killer Mike’s idea of gathering gang members together to create a product that was legal and could benefit their rivalry.

Whenever you integrate money & jobs, gang violence dissipates.

So he got a few Atlanta area Crips & Bloods organized to create their own soda company i.e. ‘Crip-a-Cola’.

Mike also explains how he created The Church Of Sleep with the intent of destroying the image of ‘white Jesus’. ?The Run The Jewels rapper enlists the help of called a childhood friend, a local strip club, for his goal of decentralized, nap-based worship.

While his attempts to?enlist a local black megachurch pastor failed, Mike shared that his intent was not to denounce Christianity, but to promote inclusion.

There’s a lot in ALL spiritual systems that we can use, the scary part is when we colonize or intrude on others with our religions.

Killer Mike’s TRIGGER WARNING is available on Netflix NOW!
