Don’t make people feel like they not safe in a place that they thought they were safe. I’m telling you right now, we need to work it out because if we don’t, it’s gon’ be a problem.”

Ray J eventually calmed down and apologized to Pastor Bryant in a second Instagram video. 

“Speaking that kind of language to a pastor is unbelievable. It’s uncalled for,” he said, adding, “It’s disrespectful; it’s distasteful. It’s disgraceful.” 

He then admitted he was “going through it in the interview in real time.” Ray J said he “lost it” because he was “scared” that things he said “could affect me legally.”
