It seems that the rapper's fans were more focused on the watch he was wearing when he covered his grandmother's mouth, after explaining that she had a broken jaw.

suskitten "what kind of watch is that" One fan asked.

After receiving a hand full of negative comments, Gates finally took to Instagram to upload a video to explain why he held his hand over his grandmother's mouth.
