Over the weekend, Ye FKA Kanye West had social media talking when he proclaimed that he influenced every aspect of music over the past 20 years on Big Boy TV. While many fans either agreed or disagreed with the sentiment, some of his Hip-Hop peers have weighed in and have thoughts of their own.
Talking about his impact on the music game over the past two decades, Ye wasn’t shy about giving himself some flowers for the work he put in saying, “I invented every style of music of the past 20 years, I created the genre. I created Weeknd’s genre. Trav, Drake, everybody. I’mma go ahead and say with all love, Future and Thug also because the auto-tune album, 808s. Everybody thinks about Trav, Weeknd, and Drake but no one thinks about Future and Thug also. The auto-tune album. Now everyone, they added whatever it was to it. But here’s a new genre. It’s called making your own money genre. This music is called, like, take that middle man out.”
With many fans taking to social media and giving examples of artists he inspired or artists that carved out their lane, Boosie Badazz took to his IG page to rebuff Kanye’s claims and stated, “NOT BOOSIE MUSIC. YOU CAN’T RELATE TO NOTHING I RAP ABOUT R YOUR MUSIC. NOBODY LISTENS TO KANYE IN THE PROJECTS R THE TRENCHES IM, A GON HEAD N SAY IT ‘ MY PEOPLE DO NOT RELATE TO YOU.’”
With a little time to spare, Kanye decided to respond to Boosie’s take and simply said “I JUST SAW THAT WIPE ME DOWN WAS MADE IN 2007… I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHATEVER THAT GENRE WOULD BE CALLED.”
This is lowkey hilarious but at the same time unnecessary because we don’t want to see these men beefing over trivial things like this.
Boosie has yet to respond to Ye’s disownment of Badazz’s genre of music but if he does you can bet he won’t be holding his tongue as BB knows how to talk that ish when he has a bone to pick with someone. Kid Cudi meanwhile responded to Kanye’s claims by taking to Twitter and posting a screenshot from his own Wikipedia page which states that Cudi was the inspiration for Ye’s 808s & Heartbreaks.
Ye has yet to respond to the post but knowing him, he’ll eventually say something at some point either directly or indirectly.
What do y’all think of this situation? Much ado about nothing? Is Ye right about influencing every genre since coming into the game? Let us know in the comments section below.

Proud homophobe Boosie Badazz and his obsession with the LGBTQ+ community continues. After walking out of The Color Purple because “it seemed gay,” pretty much telling us he doesn’t read, the rapper now feels heterosexuals are being bullied for being straight.
Spotted on HipHopDX, Boosie Badazz is again focusing on the LGBTQ+ community. The “Wipe Me Down” rapper took to Instagram Live to remind us he’s a raging homophobe.
According to the Lousiana rapper, the LGBTQ+ community is bullying heterosexuals into feeling ashamed about their sexuality, and he wants them to know that he will not be intimidated.
During his Jan. 21 Live, he said he is “speaking up for straight people” and will not be silenced.
Per HipHopDX:
“No gay shit? Bro y’all bullies, bruh,” he said. “I guess I’m the only one who speak up for straight people, so I’m gay. Anybody who speak up for straight people, y’all say gay. Sh*t be crazy.
“Y’all done bullied the whole world. Athletes, rappers scared to say they straight. Rappers and athletes scared to even say they like women. They scared they gon’ get bullied, bro. Y’all done bullied the whole world. Except me. Except me!”
He continued: “I’ll blow y’all a**es down. You know me. But y’all done bullied all the athletes, all the rappers. They can’t even say they like p***y. Y’all can come into my Live and call me whatever.
“You can call me that because you know I’m not that and I’m not cool with it being pushed on the kids. But you can come on my Live. I’m a try to block you but so many y’all be coming on my Live calling me gay just ’cause I don’t like d**k. The sh*t crazy.”
Bruh what? Yes, it sounds even stupider watching him go on this ridiculous rant.
Of course, X, formerly Twitter, never misses an opportunity to point out his weird obsession with the LGBTQ+ community.
Boosie Badazz just needs to shut up.

Boosie Badazz might be the first rapper to be told to “get over it” after someone blatantly stole his lyrics and hook for a song. After Rod Wave recorded and released the track “Long Journey” without giving Boosie any writing or publishing credit, the Lousiana rapper says he’s ready to get litigious with his younger peer.
In recent Instagram Live videos, Boosie Badazz explained that he and Rod Wave did try to work things out behind the scenes over the track “Long Journey,” which appears on Wave’s Nostalgia album. The track shares the same name as Boosie’s 2010 track and has the same chorus.
In one video, Boosie says he would’ve called off the suit for $200,000 and 25% in royalties going forward but Wave tried to talk Boosie down on the cost according to his account. Boosie also raised a fair point in saying that the use of the track and him speaking out from a legal standpoint made fans, quote, “choose sides.”
In another video, Boosie shares that he doesn’t own 100% of “Long Journey” but he does have songwriting and publishing credits on the track and just wants his fair share. The video below displays Boosie’s side of things.
The pushback from fans without law degrees is that they’re framing Boosie Badazz as trying to shake down Rod Wave for money he doesn’t deserve. Further, some are speculating that the label that put out Boosie’s “Long Journey” track might be pulling a fast one but that doesn’t explain if Wave and his producers actually cleared and paid for the use of the song and hook.
Check out some reactions from X, formerly known as Twitter, below.

T.I. isn’t one to mince his words when challenged and did so in his usual eloquent fashion in response to Boosie Badazz framing him as a snitch in a recent interview. Using the interview in question as a backdrop, T.I. directed tough words in Boosie’s direction and it isn’t known what the final outcome will be.
Taking to Instagram, T.I. posted a lengthy response to Boose Badazz’s snitch claims that he made in a recent sitdown with VladTV. Boosie referenced a 2020 comment Tip made regarding pinning a gun charge on a dead relative which didn’t sit well with the Louisiana rapper.
From Instagram:
Yeah so… Idk if it’s you or ya “OG Uncle” that needs to see it… but I GOT MY PAPERWORK ready to show!!! PULL UP!!! My number the same & my address the same my n*gga. To get on da net & speak on sh*t you’ve never spoke to me about is leaving me to believe you been hiding ya heart the whole time!!!! I’d NEVER speak “certain disrespect” on your name/reputation bout a “IF” homie… da convict code say When in doubt…pull the paperwork out!!! & “IF” you ain’t did that…[zipped mouth emoji]Now … Idk what type of time you on but I say again… “IF”it was a question or confusion bout anything I said you could’ve called and asked …. so u can report back & tell ya “OG” …or you could’ve pulled up & checked the blk & white like I’m offering now. Either way tho my n*gga … I ain’t bound to no n*gga’s opinion of me… cause what dey “THINK” will NEVER overrule what I KNOW!!!
It appears that T.I. is firing back at the over-the-top claim of using his dead cousin as the fall guy for a gun possession charge and allegedly working with the authorities, something Boosie Badazz says was against code. Tip continued to call out Boosie Badazz to discuss the matter like men but it isn’t known if an exchange happened between the pair.

Boosie Badazz lives his life by a certain code, sometimes to his detriment, but he isn’t afraid to stand ten toes down in his beliefs. The Louisiana rapper just struck down a joint album between him and T.I. due to his Atlanta cohort using a dead cousin to duck a gun charge.
Sitting down with VladTV, Boosie Badazz minced no words about his feelings on T.I. pinning a gun charge on his deceased family member. According to Boosie, the act was akin to snitching or being a rat in his book.
“With the T.I. situation, if he did that, you’re a f*cking rat too,” Boosie is seen in a clip from his interview with VladTV. “I don’t spare no motherf*ckin’ body. Because if you doing anything wrong, if you doing anything criminal-wise, and you cooperate with law enforcement, to get you out of trouble, that means you’re a rat.”
It appears that Boosie isn’t completely certain about whether or not T.I. did pin a gun on his cousin. In fact, Boosie says in the clip he thinks that T.I. was just sharing the tall tale to get views for his podcast series. Boosie goes on to display disappointment in Tip’s admission, saying that the timing of it couldn’t have been worse as they were planning to drop the album.
As result, Boosie is no longer interested in releasing the project. As we shared earlier this week, T.I. is set to release his final solo album, Kill The King, at a later date.
Check out Boosie Badazz sharing why he’s moving on from working with T.I. below.
