Lil Tjay and Jack Doherty’s playful exchange takes a tense turn
At the start of the livestream, there was little sign that the interaction would end in an argument. Lil Tjay and Jack Doherty were seen joking, laughing and talking casually in front of viewers.
Part of their conversation centered around Doherty’s Richard Mille watch. Lil Tjay appeared interested in playing rock-paper-scissors for the watch, prompting Doherty to respond:
“I ain’t runnin’ a watch. You think I’m runnin’ a watch? 500! We’ll break even!.. I like your music… Why would you even think about that?”
