For one, yes, Sear is a terrible interviewer, and misquoted Serch either intentionally or unintentionally to get some audio click bait.

As for the stuff with Pete, I take that with a grain of salt. Him and Serch have a very "complicated" relationship. This appears to be one of the times where they're on the outs. Pete seems to be taking offense to the implication that Serch wrote all of Steppin to the A.M., which I'm not sure Serch ever implied.

All that said, others have said that Serch has, shall we say, embellished a lot of his stories. Mostly it's people who didn't come out looking to good in the stories, but it's happened enough times that it's noticeable.

Eh, it was a different time. And showing respect to the originators was very much a real thing back then. I'd rather that than having rappers who don't even seem to actually like hip-hop.
