Killer Mike chopped it up with Morris Brown College president, Dr. Stanley Pritchett on the importance of HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities)

Cam tells the 1515 boys, that despite going to college, he never graduated high school.
“I went to college and didn’t graduate from high school. I got to
