"The budget goes away like all the previous members."

"She deserves so much, better my girl needs a new company."

"Could still look good even if they're on a budget, but it doesn't."

"Why did Baby V.O.X had more budget than them?"

"It looks fine guys. What are y'all on about? They don't have that much of a budget."

"Y'all can pay for it if you want. they slayed and period."
