About

Xaviersobased Reacting To Jaydes, also known as I Gotta Do My Research, refers to a reaction video that shows American rapper Xaviersobased reacting to news about underground artist Jaydes being on the run for brutally stabbing a woman. Xavier can be seen leaning over to read the comments on his Instagram live while dressed in a white shirt, saying, "You're lying, he ain't do that. He did that? He really did that. I gotta do my research, I gotta do my research." The video came to be used as a reaction meme to joke about being gullible or learning new facts and conspiracy theories on X / Twitter in November 2024.

Origin

Police began looking for South Florida underground rapper Jaydes after his ex-girlfriend launched accusations of attempted murder against him. Jaydes reportedly stabbed her multiple times after she refused his advances.^[1]

NYC-based rapper Xaviersobased hosted a live stream on his Instagram page on November 7th, 2024, where his fans asked him for his opinion on the Jaydes situation. Unfamiliar with the news, Xaviersobased can be heard saying, "You're lying, he ain't do that. He did that? He really did that. I gotta do my research, I gotta do my research." The clip was reposted by X user @crazysilly2013 on November 7th.^[8]
