On a recent episode of Divorce Court, a man admitted he didn’t return his fiancée’s car at the agreed-upon time because he had a “rare opportunity” to play basketball with OMB Peezy.
Christina Smalls and George Artis, who have been engaged for two years, touched on a hip-hop related relationship issue. “George is very inconsiderate, and he asked one day to use my car to go play basketball,” said Smalls at the 8:00-mark of the episode above. She said she agreed to let him use the car, as long as he would return it in time for her to run errands. When he didn’t return the car within the agreed-upon timeframe, he called her over FaceTime and provided a bizarre excuse.
“He was just telling me it was this rapper at the court, and he was out there shooting hoops with them and he was actually on the way back home,” she said. “5:30 came, no sign of George. I start calling George, [and] he will not answer the phone. I go check my social media, he’s posting on his Stories of the basketball player but he’s not answering my phone calls.” She said he returned three hours late, and when he got an opportunity to explain his side of the story he apologized and admitted he wanted to play with Peezy.
“It was OMB Peezy, one of my favorite rappers from Alabama,” he said. “And he was out there playing basketball with us, and time had just slipped. We were just talking and carrying on, and yes I should have answered the phone and just let her know that I was gonna be a little bit late. Instead I just played and just chilled with them. … Once in a lifetime, couldn’t pass it up.”
He suggested, to a laugh from Smalls, that “if it was Megan or Nicki she would have stayed, and I wouldn’t have said nothing.” When he did actually get home, he said she was “furious” and he had to dodge objects she threw at him. “I had to duck,” he added.
Peezy posted the clip on Instagram, writing, “‘spare dat man 🤦🏿♂️ we was hoopin’.”
He also shared on his Stories a post where someone contended, “He innocent cause if I see @omb_peezy I’ma risk it for the biscuit too, I ain’t lying.”
