He flexes on everyone, telling everyone how he&#8217;s a VIP at the Grand Prix in Monaco. He hangs out with LeBron James and Leonardo DiCaprio. He notices how all the cars are quicker in person. He even confirms that Sofia Vergara is even prettier in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He then calls out any artist that tries to challenge him, by saying that anything they do is like scoring a goal after Messi and Maradona. Essentially it&#8217;s already been done and there is no way that you can do it better.
