Who Is America? rapper was "terrified" when he learned Sacha Baron Cohen duped him, "but I came out looking okay"

Vulture

Atlanta rap legend Ness Lee thought he was filming some college project when he had a rap battle with Cohen’s Dr. Nira Cain-N’Degeocello. "I’m a big fan of Sacha Baron Cohen," he says. "But I watched the first episode and I got terrified. Absolutely terrified. I thought he was going to make me look crazy. But I came out looking okay. I don’t know the real answer as to why, so I’m just gonna make myself believe that Sacha’s actually a fan of mine, and that’s why I got a decent edit."
