On June 26, a video of a woman calling out rapper Sexyy Red emerged on the internet and quickly gained traction online. She listed several reasons why she “hates” the Pound Town hitmaker and labeled her as a negative influence on young women.
“I hate that b*tch Sexyy Red. I promise you I hate that girl. I hate her… I want somebody to make a diss record against her a*s. I am ‘bout to right a diss. I don’t like that b*tch,” the woman began her clip.
In the wake of her viral video, Sexyy Red caught wind of the backlash and issued a simple response by asking her critic to make a correction.
“It’s Sexyy, spell it right,” the rapper wrote along with a kiss emoji as opposed to the woman’s misspelling of her name on her clip as ‘Sexy Red.’
Meanwhile, the video has sparked a debate online. Fans of the rapper believe it’s not her responsibility to be a role model for others and that she can be who she wants, while others agree with the woman and consider Sexyy Red as a negative influence.
Exploring, in detail, what the critic said about Sexyy Red
On Wednesday, a woman took to social media and uploaded a 2-minute, 20-second video of herself where she took hits at rapper Sexyy Red.
She shared how she wanted someone to release a diss track against the Get It S*xyy rapper or would simply opt to do it herself as she “hates” her for numerous reasons.
The woman expressed her dismay about people who listened to Red’s music calling her fanbase “crazy” and pointed out her explicit lyrics and unusual online antics.
“I know she [is] detrimental to the Black community… I know she is trying to influence these young girls to be ratchet, nasty, and trifling,” she mentioned.
The critic pointed out that people often don’t realize the bad influences until it is too late and urged parents of teenage girls (whom she claimed were the rapper’s primary fanbase) to have conversations with their kids and let them know that “this is not the way to go.”
“She is going to tear your daughter’s self-esteem down, piece by piece,” the woman referred to her viewers.
The woman continued to claim that she hates social media for making everybody “famous” and acknowledged that every time she saw any of her “sissies” taking down Sexyy Red, she ensured to like, comment, and repost to raise awareness about her negative impact.
The user wrapped up by claiming that the 26-year-old St. Louis-born rapper was “making a mockery out of Black girl’s hair and saying it looks like carpet and saying that it’s unattractive, along with turning your daughters into wh*res.”
“I hate this b*tch with everything in me,” she concluded.
Unbothered by the backlash, the BET Hip-Hop Award nominee released the teaser of the music video of her hit single Bow Bow Bow (also called F My Baby Daddy) featuring rapper Chef Keef, whom she referred to as a “brudda” earlier this month but is rumored to be in a relationship with.
On the same day, she also announced her upcoming Sexyy Red 4 President Tour slated to begin in early August.
