21 Savage was driving on the morning of the 2019 Super Bowl<\/a><\/strong> when he was pulled over.<\/p>\n

“What happened?” Davis asked the rapper in the interview.<\/p>\n

“I don’t even know,” Savage replied. “I was just driving and I just see guns and blue lights. And then I was in the back of a car and I was gone.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Did they tell you you’re under arrest?” Davis asked.<\/p>\n

“Nah, they didn’t say nothing,” he told Davis. “They just said, ‘We got Savage.'”<\/p>\n

He then went on to add, “It was definitely targeted.”<\/p>\n

When asked if he’s concerned about being deported, Savage replied, “Yeah, but I feel like I done been through so much in my life, like, I’ve learned to embrace the times when I’m down ’cause they always build me up.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
