The Atlanta-native wore a mask, gloves, and practiced social distancing at the event.

2 Chainz and his business partner Mychel “Snoop” Dillard originally were going to reopen the restaurant for dine-in services, but despite the state giving the green light to do so, they changed there mind after speaking to several other restaurants.
