French revealed that the incident was blown out of proportion and he wasn't the direct target of the attack. However, he did try to break it up.
The 34 year-old rapper revealed "We had went to the strip club, then after the strip club, on our way, we stopped to get some chopped cheese," he recalled.
"My boy just started arguing, next thing I turn around, they started fighting," French added.
French said "My security in the car asleep. I don't blame him, though," he said before Angie Martinez said that security was up all night with French. "I don't blame him but it's like, I shouldn't be the one breaking up the fight."
French continued "Things just gon' happen. I mean, if I see two of my friends fighting -- what you think? I'm not going to go break-up the fight because I'm worried about what anybody think? They could end up stabbing each other, shooting each other," he said.
"Two of my friends fighting. I had to break it up."
