Moroccan-American rapper French Montana has been receiving backlash, after he shared a photo with former President Donald Trump's daughter-in-law Lara Trump, on Instagram, on July 25. In the post's caption, Montana wrote,

"Look who came to check me at the studio @laraleatrump she love her some MONTANA..."

He also shared a video where Lara showed a peace sign.

The rapper connected with Lara at a study session, as reported by AllHipHop. Apart from being Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara is also the co-chair of the Republican National Convention. Shortly after the post went up, netizens flooded the internet bashing the Morocco-born rapper. Many reminded him of Donald Trump's infamous ban on Muslims entering the country.

Here are some of the online reactions on the matter,

Rapper French Montana recently received backlash for bringing in Andrew Tate

While he is now bashed on the internet for associating with RNC co-chair Lara Trump, this wasn't the first time in the few days that he got involved in a controversial situation. Just a few days ago on July 14, at his Romania concert, he brought out another conservative figure, Andrew Tate, who is an American-British social media influencer.

Netizens called out the rapper for bringing out someone who had some severe allegations against him, including human trafficking and r*pe. Montana then took to Instagram where he shared footage capturing the moment of the concert and wrote,

"First rapper to do a stream with top G and the first to bring Top G out on stage! ROMANIA WE LOVE YOU. S/O Andrew Tate + Tristan Tate."

Many users of the social media platform referred to Project 2025. Earlier this month, she gave a speech at the Republican National Convention and endorsed her father-in-law Donald Trump's election campaign.

French Montana, however, wasn't the only one who had extended support to the former president in the 2024 Presidential Elections. Several other celebrities, including Sexyy Red, Kodak Black, and Benny The Butcher did the same.
