Toronto rapper who faked #coronavirus on a flight now charging $400 for interviews about what it’s like to be a huge piece of shit

Thanks for the heads up from Graeme The Post Millenial (@TPostMillenial).

The staff at PM apparently tried to interview this little stain and he tried to squeeze them for $400 and when they said ‘no’, he did it anyway.

FYI, don’t hire James Potok to negotiate ANYTHING for you, ever.

The Post Millenial: James Potok, rap name Potok Philippe, has risen to infamy in the past two days after his publicity stunt on a WestJet flight, where he wore a mask and gloves and implied he had the coronavirus after falsely claiming he visited the infected region in China, resulted in a flight from Toronto heading to Jamiaca turning around and being cancelled after takeoff.

The hoax for fame resulted in two flights being cancelled.

The same day he pulled his publicity stunt that disrupted 243 passengers plans, he released “6ICKO”.

When The Post Millennial reached out to Potok for an interview he responded by asking for $400. After being denied money, he eventually agreed to do it anyway.

What a dumb, fuck.  He’s responsible for hundreds of thousands of dollars in corporate losses, destroying people’s vacations and causing mass hysteria on a flight as the world fights the plague.  So what does he do next?  Asks an online startup for $400 dollars to do a 7-minute, braindead conversation.

Post Millenial pointed out Potok’s new rap single dropped the same day he was arrested for causing mass hysteria.

For the record, his music is shit.

I listened o the first minute of it.  It’s super shit. In ‘6ICKO’ Potok says he’s ‘Trendy in Fendi and my shoes are from Prada’ which is interesting.

I don’t know many sick rappers who wear Prada and Fendi who grind people for $400.

And who the fuck is this guy?

‘Gotchi’?  Do you know what these two don’t ‘Gotchi’?

Talent.  Or a real story.

I’d put all my money on these two both being from middle-class families, still living at home hitting the town on a Friday night scared shitless trying to fit in at an open mike night rap battle.

This dude barely shaves and borrowed someone’s coat and hoodie, too.

Anyway, if James Potok asks you to listen to his Mixtape or give him a few hundred for 5 minutes of his time, don’t bother.  It sucks and he’ll do it for free.

Pip pip

PS.  The second comment on Potock’s YouTube channel made me laugh out loud in my office.  By myself. God, I love you people.
