This isn’t the first time that a disturbing video of Murray surfaced online. Back in July, he responded to another video of him circulating on social media. “Somebody got some footage of me, and they tried to assassinate my character,” he said in an interview, “But at the same time, they should’ve played it after BET, made it seem like it was current or something because BET was spectacular. I’m getting a lot of positive feedback.”
He continued, “It was before. Some footage that some people that I don’t know got old footage and tried to bring it out, but God is on my side and I don’t really talk about negativity. Why didn’t they post my BET performance? Whoever those people were. Why didn’t Lord Jamar talk about how gracefully I rocked the stage?”
Murray concluded, “Black people always try to bring Black people down when they doing good,” Murray concluded. “The devil always comes and try to tear you down when God got a blessing for you. So, I ask Lord Jamar and whoever that other person was, to highlight my show at the BET Awards. It went worldwide.”
Murray’s manager, Antwone “APthatGuy” Payne clarified that the footage of his client is old. “First and foremost we would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone that reached out. Yes, indeed, that footage does depict Keith Murray from several years back, during a challenging period where he was unfortunately taken advantage of. Let this video serve as a stark reminder of the dangers and vulnerabilities associated with drug use.
He continued, “However, that was then, and this is now! We’re ecstatic to share that Keith Murray is now and has been for years in a completely different space—vibrant, healthy, and firmly committed to his journey of sobriety. It’s truly remarkable to witness his transformation!”
Payne concluded, “WHAT’S NEXT? There’s so much excitement on the horizon! Keith Murray is diving into a whirlwind of positive developments, including upcoming live performances that are set to electrify audiences, new music releases that will have fans go crazy, appearances on upcoming reality shows that will showcase his true essence, and a plethora of thrilling opportunities for the future. And we welcome all who want to work with us as well.”
