Waka Flocka Flame's Bigoted Rant: Rapper's Hate-Filled Tirade Targets Biden Voters

Rapper Waka Flocka Flame unleashed a vile and divisive attack on President Biden's supporters during a recent performance in Utah. In a shocking display, the rapper demanded that Biden voters leave the venue, stating:

"All my Joe Biden voters, get out. We going to see ya'll at the bingo game."

Per footage obtained by TMZ and TikTok videos, the rapper then added:

"We're going to party right now for our f− president, T24,"

a clear and reprehensible endorsement of the bigoted and racist agenda of former president Donald Trump.

The rapper's words are a stark reminder of the toxic and hateful rhetoric that has infected our political discourse. The performance, which took place at Club Sky in Salt Lake City, has understandably left fans with mixed reactions. Some have spoken out against the rapper's intolerance, while others have sadly fallen in line with his toxic message.

This is not the first time Waka Flocka has aligned himself with the toxic Trump brand. In October, he posted a pro-Trump message on X (formerly Twitter), and has since received a lifetime achievement award from the Trump administration for his work with a non-profit.

Hip-hop Artists and the Trump Backing: A Troubling Trend

Waka Flocka is sadly not alone in his dangerous endorsement of Trump. Several other hip-hop artists have made similar statements, including Sexyy Red, who recently walked back her comments, and New York rappers Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow, who attended a Trump rally in the Bronx. Model Amber Rose has also faced backlash for her ill-informed endorsement of the former president.

The normalization of Trump and his hateful policies within the hip-hop community is a disturbing trend that cannot be ignored. It is a disservice to the foundations of the genre and a slap in the face to the very communities that hip-hop artists claim to represent.

As we move towards the 2024 election, it is imperative that we call out instances of intolerance, bigotry, and racism, and not allow hateful rhetoric to go unchecked.
