Bobby Shmurda has spoken out about the rumors circulating on social media regarding his sexuality.
On Friday (September 16), the Bod Boy lyricist took to Instagram to combat the claims that he was in bed with two males in a video clip doing the rounds.
In addition to popping up in the comment section of a post shared by The Shaderoom featuring the video, Shmurda sounded off in a post of his own alleging that the individuals who are perpetuating the rumors are merely his haters attempting to knock him off his paper chase.
“When the hate doesn’t work, they start telling lies,” Bobby Shmurda wrote. He continued “That’s why y’all still broke after all these years. You spend your time on bullshit and cap to make y’all feel better. [Crying laughing emoji] Tap into reality. [Kissy face emoji] Go get you some Shmoney #viralpost.”
Bobby went even further in the since-deleted IG post he shared, claiming the entire situation is being manipulated by record labels, who he believes control the media narrative, as a complex operation to spoil his upcoming tour.
“Tour is coming up and the labels always showed me how they control and work any narrative they want and control media to an extent,” Bobby Shmurda wrote in a message in the post. “How much do the bots cost y’all? I [just] made $200K last week. I’m trying to buy some shit [because] ya’ll odeee yang sucking. I can’t boom the internet, so have fun.”
He continued in a lengthy caption: “[Crying laughing emoji] I’m really that scary. [Crying laughing emojis] Ay, they [are] trying to fuck up my tour, [because] I’m not with them anymore and I’m taking [their] artist on tour. Like they [tried to] sabotage my EP, lower my sound, all kinda crazy nerd shit. They don’t want it played nowhere. They pay for [their] artist to get played at. #realife #trillers #bandit #bigmad #independentartist #slaveship #nogood.”
In addition to the viral video footage and unsubstantiated claims of Bobby Shmurda laying in bed with two men, a Facebook user by the name of Xavier Raza has come forward claiming to be one of the people under the covers with the New York rapper.
This isn’t the first time Bobby Shmurda’s sexual orientation has become a point of deliberation within the world of Hip Hop. In December of 2021, Cardi B hopped on Twitter to defend Bobby Shmurda against fans questioning his sexuality as a result of his “zesty” dance moves.
“Y’all really be trying Bobby cause he be dancing and no lie when I used to do visits in Rikers Bobby & Rowdy were always in OBC solitary confinement cause they was really getting it rockin Them boys ain’t punked out in jail really stood on their shit unlike a lot of rappers,” Cardi B wrote in the tweet.
This past January, Bobby Shmurda once again became the source of discussion on social media after West Coast music executive Wack 100 criticized his dance moves and declared his “disco bunny dancing,” was “loosing the streets.”
Naw, that n**** is just gay. There’s no bisexual in him. He’s just super gay.
Even if he is, what that got to do with you?? Y’all find any reason to treat someone like sh*t or ridicule them. Grow up and think for yourself.
Internet is THEE most bullshit place to get your news from…and WHY is everyone so infatuated with people being gay anyway? If you want to try it, go ahead, fuckers damn
Are you jealous?!?! LMAO!!!! You’re really sounding like you’re upset that you’re not getting paid all the attention from them or something. If you don’t like it then just ignore it instead of getting your panties in a bunch. You sure you’re not Ken Kaniff From Connecticut?
Jealous? I don’t think half of you read the article. The dude is saying people are trying to make him out to be that way. And all these trolls out here feeding into it and spreading gossip. Dude isn’t claiming to be bisexual. He’s saying it’s all lies probably perpetuated by record labels. Y’all are ig’nant asf…and I’m speaking in you trolls’ fascination with men being in the closet, you’ll put that shit out on anybody with no facts. Lies and and foolish people who believe them smh.
Been saying this guy was SuS since he dropped Hot N!99@ and Bobby Bitch and he kept doing all that twerking. It’s been 7 years and he’s still twerking. He should’ve just signed to Bad Boy Records, then he would’ve never gotten dropped but Diddy will be bending him over physically, mentally, sexually and financially though.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he was. He’s about as fruity as Diddy but won’t admit it.
wtf career suicide.
Naw, that’s H0M0CIDE
Even his answer with kissing emojis looks gay af.
Too many butty boys
He took it in the ass in prison.. on daily basis.
It all makes sense. This generation corny af. They pushed him for years like he was the next pac or something. Got out of jail and all that d got to his brain and revealed it was the beat of hot n y’all were in love with. His anger was just because of his confusion with his disordered attractions.
If he gay just say that we see it already. He can stop using them manipulative tactics to go around coming out.
Def a man cus the female never came forward and if she had why you scared to show we ? What Female got a forehead line up like that with sideburns going down ?
My thing is it shouldn’t matter if he is gay or not because he is a good artist to me. If he wants to be gay or bisexual that’s his life not y’all’s so stop bashing that man.
