Old pranks of Lexus & Vovan

I call "old" pranks that were published before I came to the forum (I publish newer pranks here in the form of separate topics).

This is a special video (it is part of the series but has no number.)

US rapper Talib Kweli has been fighting all Russian rappers on his Twitter for several days, accusing them of Nazism. Talib is heavily trolled by Twitter followers who send him fake photos of alleged Nazi rappers. Kweli, on the other hand, thinks that these photos are real and that all the rappers in Russia are Nazis, which causes a roar of laughter from the Russian audience.
Pranksters Vovan and Lexus called Kweli on behalf of Greta Thunberg and her father Svante as part of a project (Stars save the Earth). They said that rapper Timati, who is allegedly a member of the Burger for Sobyanin [] gang, dealt with his colleague Guf, who was allegedly going to leave the criminal rap community. Kweli fully believes in this completely fictional story and admits that this was most likely the case and "Timati killed Guf." Next, the pranksters turn on Talib's cuts of Senator Bernie Sanders' phrases, assuring that the politician is now on the line (phrases are cut from a past conversation between the pranksters and the real Sanders.) Talib also fully believes in the reality of Sanders and tells him about his activities in the fight against Russian Nazi rappers.
Further, the prankers include for Talib cutting phrases of Senator Bernie Sanders, assuring him that the politician is now on the line (the phrases are cut from the prankers' last conversation with the real Sanders.) Talib also fully believes in the reality of Sanders' presence and tells him about his activities in the fight against Russian Nazi rappers.
