I think his comments were basically saying "People didn't understand because my transition was drastic", not so much that he regretting going gung-ho in that direction.

Mase can you please stop smokin' la-la? neutral

Sometimes when people get saved, they go from one extreme to another. It's very common.

The Hip-Hop game in the late 90's woulda been MUCH BETTER IF:

1)Cam'Ron & Mase put out a CD 2gether (Horse & Carriage was the SHIZNIT!!!!!)

2)Thelma & Louise (Lil' Kim & Foxy) woulda put out their CD

cool cool cool cool

As I said in another thread pertaining to Mase, he is way past relevance and his time was up 12 years ago and 90s rappers aren't selling at all anymore.

He can't serve two masters and I imagine it would be devastating to his flock for him to turn his back on them in the quest for ice....

Mase Caught With A Transvestite?

Actor Eddie Murphy is not the only one who has allegedly picked up someone or something off the side of the road. Rapper Mase now can be included in that category.

The incident supposedly happened on Spring Street in Atlanta around 12 am. According to the young woman who was involved in the car wreck, it happened when she was going north and pulled into the left turning lane while Mase was beside her in the right hand lane. She says she was about to make a left onto North Ave when Mase tried to turn in front of her truck in an attempt to circle the block to pick up a transvestite.

The victim appeared on Atlanta's Ryan Cameron Morning Show, to tell what happened with the rapper turned preacher turned rapper again and the transvestites.

"The shims their running up to the car saying 'girl, girl we seen what happened we seen everything' it's like five or six of them because they working so they run up to the car saying 'girl are you ok he's been circling around here girl like four times already tryin to pick one of these queens up'."

When asked by Cameron whether or not she would go back to Mason's church she emphatically replied "Never."

Rapper Mase Caught Trolling For A Transvestite?

May 17th, 2007 1:39pm EDT

Rapper Mase was involved in a car crash in Atlanta, Georgia, last week as he allegedly attempted to pick up a transvestite. The G-Unit affiliate is reported to have been driving around the Spring Street area in Atlanta just after midnight on Friday, trying to look for a companion for the night.

But Mase - a born-again Christian who is also known as Dr. Mason Betha - ran into trouble when he crashed into the back of a woman's Range Rover.

Reports claim officials arrived on the scene shortly after the incident occurred, and Mase refused to co-operate until authorities threatened to impound his car.

The unnamed victim later appeared on local radio station WHTA and told the Ryan Cameron Morning Show, "(The transvestites) came running up to the car saying, 'Girl, girl, we seen what happened, we seen everything!'

"It's like, five or six of them because they working, so they run up to the car saying, 'Girl, are you OK? He's been circling around here like four times already trying to pick one of these queens up.'"

According to the article, the multi-platinum selling rapper from the late 1990s is now looking back with regret at his faith formation and ordination.

In a TBN interview, Betha, 34, first tried to re-emerge from his initial retirement back into a rap career, he spoke about the people who worried about a return to hip-hop pulling the pastor away from hisChristian calling.

“Why is it Christians are more confident in the Devil taking me more than Christ keeping me,” Betha questions. “What I have inside of me is more powerful than anything the world could ever offer me.”

Betha asked hip-hop radio DJ Funkmaster Flex for help with a comeback in a radio interviewlast month where he spoke about his initial choice to leave the rap industry alone to honor God as a preacher.

“I thought I could do more than rap and I just so happen to be right. I see different artists making clothing lines and people respected it,”

Betha said in the interview last month. “Rap has always been about using your talents for doing more. I’m just the one that got criticized for doing more than was unexpected. I think I overachieved.”

Still, Betha, pastor and founder of El Elyon International Church and Mason Betha Ministries, said he regretted transition from a rapper to pastor.

“I didn’t give myself any room to grow, I went from one extreme to another extreme, I was just so gung ho about what I was learning, that’s all I wanted.”I went so hard in one direction that people had things to say and rightfully so,” Betha told Flex. “I don’t blame them for that [but] it’s been 13 years, let’s move on.”

I’m not exactly sure I’m seeing where he necessarily said he “regretted becoming a pastor” but okay…

Although Betha admitted that people had the right to judge his decisions, he said they should move on since so much time has passed.

The young pastor said he would pick God over music if given the choice again, he asked for prayers while entering back into the rap world with no restrictions.

“I’m taking all the limitations off, they’re gonna have to pray for me,” Betha told the Hot 97 radio personality.”If I had to pick the two I’d still pick God over music any day.

...You really didn't 'see' it?

It's the part where he mentioned that he went too fast, jumping from one extreme to the other. Read between the lines and it does sound like he's somewhat ambivalent about things.

falloff disbelief Those Atlanta shims aint even pretty. He could have went to Magic City and got some...um.....real woman company. I never believe the stories about these dudes getting fooled and accidentally picking up trannies. I think they know damn well what they have in front of them and they know where to look too.
