During an appearance on Shannon Sharpe's "Club Shay Shay" podcast on Wednesday, Mike apologized to the Curry couple for his "miscontrued" comment. The rapper added that he was high at that time.

"Steph Curry, Ayesha Curry, boy, my wife done cussed me out," Mike said (Timestamp: 3:25). "My oldest daughter called me. My youngest daughter called me. … My homeboys that have played in the NBA called me, and I realized that maybe I shouldn’t smoke marijuana and get on Instagram.

Mike agreed with Woodz's view and wrote:

"My ni**a said she wanna go be Glo!!! Man Steph doesn’t deserve the embarrassment (for real). God bless him."
