<h3 style="text-align: center;">Sexyy Red Opens Up About The NSFW Video</h3>
<p>The 25-year-old rapper appeared as a recent guest on &#8216;The Breakfast Club&#8217; for an episode that premiered on Friday, December 15. During the group&#8217;s conversation, host Charlamagne tha God questioned Red about allegedly &#8220;leaking&#8221; her NSFW tape &#8220;on purpose.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Now people said you leaked your s*x tape on purpose because of &#8216;Pound Town,&#8221; Charlamagne Tha God told the rapper.</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8216;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GyvXrxOYK4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pound Town</a>&#8216; is one of Sexyy Red&#8217;s hit singles, which even garnered a feature from rap veteran Nicki Minaj.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;No, that was the wackest video,&#8221; the rapper responded. &#8220;I was tired, I was fat, pregnant — I didn&#8217;t even feel like doing s**t on there, and then, that&#8217;s the one that f*****g gets leaked!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Charlamagne Tha God and fellow co-host DJ Envy questioned the rapper about how the tape leaked to the public. Red explained that no one had stolen or &#8220;broke into&#8221; her phone.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It was in the moment, and then [sic] sat the phone down, threw it, and then it had accidentally pressed [post],&#8221; Red explained.</p></blockquote>
