Bay Area rapper Lil B sat down with Bay Area News sports columnist Marcus Thompson and explained his infamous “Based God’s Curse.”

He placed the curse on Kevin Durant in 2011 for dissing his music, and recently cursed James Harden of the Houston Rockets for appropriating his cooking dance. Durant’s misfortunes have been well-documented, and the Rockets have yet to win a game in the Western Conference Finals against the Golden State Warriors since the curse was placed. Once could have been coincidence, but twice should satisfy you that the Based God’s Curse is a real, actual thing.

Here are the takeways from the conversation from Thompson and Lil B’s conversation.

1. He explained why the Based God’s Curse befell James Harden.

“I’ve seen a lot of people stealing from what I do. Some people show love and say thank you and tell me how I was an inspiration for them. So Harden’s just getting the rough end.”

2. Lil B is a huge Golden State Warriors fan. Huge.

“The Warriors are a lifestyle. I love every Warrior that stayed. They represented Oakland with pride. I love the Warriors. I love Oakland. I love the people.”

3. The Based God’s Curse is very much a real thing.

“We wouldn’t be talking if [the curse wasn’t real]. It can’t be fake. You see what happened to KD. He was doing great before messing with me.”

4. The Based God’s Curse only happens when you disrespect Lil B.

“They’ve got to be real in the heart. When you hatin, that just shows where your heart is. This [curse] only happens when you hate on Lil B or for stealing from Lil B or showing disrespect.”

5. Lil B believes in you. Yes, you. (And also the Warriors.)

“It doesn’t matter where you’re from. You can be from the hood or the suburbs. You can be poor with no education or a college graduate. No matter your background, you can win. The Warriors represent that. You can win.”
