A meme or common trope about rappers is they say that their teachers told them they would amount to nothing.

This person says some of them are lying to act like a victim, and what actually happened is the teacher made them read aloud to the class which they may not have been good at, and it made them angry so they made up the story I mentioned previously.

It also subtly hints that the teacher was a big part of their becoming a rapper, because reading aloud means articulating in a strong voice under pressure.
