"I don't care who you date here, just stay away from that boy."

He said:
"Not at all. No, listen, they are impressed by it. They are not impressed that I’m in it. They love the movie. They love the music of it.”
He went on to jokingly add that he has resigned to seeking approval from his year-old son.
However, it was a different story when Seth asked how Brown's son reacted to "Black Panther."Sterling explained that the little boy went into a frenzy when Sterling's son in the movie, "Killmonger," died.
