“How many times he gonna fire him and bring him back now?”

“He's putting cameraman's into rotation like yearly call of duty games.”

One netizen commented that it was a scripted moment, as they claimed:

“It gotta be a script cause doing this live is wild lol.”

Mentioning DDG’s former cameraman, another X user commented:

“He only did it because of the moment Johnny had on stream about his brother and parents being deceased i believe.”

Here’s what DDG told Ed during the streaming session

DDG told Ed that if people on his team were not punctual, it would affect his efficiency. He then told Ed:

“That being said, man. I am gonna let you go.”

Ed requested another chance, but Darryl said that one more try would not be enough. He said Ed already had enough chances. He mentioned that this wasn’t the first time Ed was late to work. He said:

“I have been telling you like all that late sh*t is not cool. It don’t matter. I am starting late but you also late. Damn, what if I want to start early. You feel me? Like I can’t do in real without a cameraman. And if you are not here, that mean you are slowing me down. So, it’s like how the f*ck I am supposed to just continuously just? You know and at the end of the day, it’s a job.”

According to DDG, he and Ed were not on the “same wavelength.” After telling him that he was fired, Ed left the room and yelled, “F*ck.” The rapper reportedly called up his former cameraman and asked if he could join immediately. The person said he would be on his way in the next 30 minutes. He said he would get ready and head over.

Darryl then told his viewers that a new cameraman would join his team. He mentioned that they would get started “real soon.”
