Boosie Badazz has been left seething after watching Killers of the Flower Moon.
The Baton Rouge rapper took to X on Thursday (November 9) to share his thoughts on Martin Scorsese’s new Western crime drama, set in 1920s Oklahoma in the Osage Nation.
“IM GETTING PISSED OFF WATCHING THIS MOVIE ‘KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON'” he vented. “ITS A SHAME WHAT INDIANS N BLACKS WENT THROUGH BACK N THE DAYS TO THE HANDS OF THE WHITE MAN. JUST PURE EVIL.”
Boosie Badazz also admitted that he’s been working on his anger issues, but the film didn’t do him any favors.
“I CANT WATCH MOVIES LIKE THIS ANYMORE R CIVIL RIGHTS MOVIES ANYMORE CAUSE IVE BEEN TRYIN TO WORK ON MY ANGER N THIS REALLY PISSES ME THE FUCK OFF I HATE THIS DAM MOVIE,” he added.
Killers of the Flower Moon hit theaters on October 20 and stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro and Lily Gladstone in the lead roles.
The movie follows the murders of Osage Native Americans after oil was produced on tribal land, with tribal members retaining mineral rights on their reservation and white people looking to gain their wealth.
Boosie Badazz is no stranger to sharing his thoughts on movies and television. In April 2021, he said he would no longer watch Dr. Phil after taking issue with a particular episode.
“I’m about to stop watching Dr. Phil,” he said at the time. “Man, that dude got some shit on here, this shit too crazy for me man. The daughter snorting cocaine with they daddy, she 13 years old. Bruh, this shit crazy. This shit crazy.”
Boosie Badazz is also no stranger to the movie industry having released his own film Where’s MJ? last year, starring Public Enemy’s Flavor Fav as his father.
The movie follows the Badazz family on vacation, but things take a turn when robbers try to steal their fortune.
That’s the film’s point though. You aren’t meant to root for the white people in this
White men kicked out Natives from their lands, and what did the Natives do? Invited them back in. Once they acquired wealth, the women started marrying white men because they were insecured about themselves and wanted to feel accepted. I didn’t feel sorry for them.
Sounds like Africans
I don’t usually comment on here but man you’re particularly dumb mf. As a Native American man please keep your ignorant white corn inbred opinions to yourself. Your reductive assessment of indigenous trauma is both deeply offensive and profoundly incorrect. I truly hope someone kicks you off your land (or trailer park I assume) and then all us internet folk can then pontificate about why it was your own fault all along. I hope you have someone to help you tie your shoes cos it sounds like that would be a difficult task for you. I’ll finish by just asking you to refer to the title of this post. Thanks and enjoy your next brother/sister wedding anniversary.
Don’t be mad at the movie, be mad at history. Everything that shouldn’t have happened did happen–including Boosie’s existence.
In the end they won with their monopoly on casinos. And who always looses their fortune in casinos ? The white man. Do the native Americans that own casinos help their poor ? Not really. They let them suffer from poverty and addiction. They have their own “privileged” and “oppressed” classes on their reservations. The woke should really keep native Americans names out their mouth and stop virtue signaling.
You are stupid on so many levels, but let’s start with the fact that corrupt capitalist society was forced upon them, they are now existing in a corrupt sinful society and still have generational problems that will never be solved with money because of the history of what’s been done to their culture. Those who haven’t experienced the trauma caused by the hands of caucasian capitalist society will have opinions like yours rooted in ignorance.
Very well said.
Literally every time Real Talk OG posts on here, he somehow manages to say something more fucking stupid than the last. I don’t know if this idiot even knows how to brush his teeth.
White people, don’t support this demon, he doesn’t like you
This film is either a stroke of genius or stupidity on stilts. Both opinions are perfectly reasonable to me.
The stroke of genius is that Scorsese has you going in, rooting for DeNiro and DiCaprio, the anti-heroes of his other films. Instead, when you realize you’ve been rooting for the bad guys, it’s a message that resonates. How much of American history has us rooting for the bad guys?
On the other hand, if the Osage are the good guys, why are they bit characters in their own film? When your hero is evil – and the film chronicles their downfall – that’s tragedy. The Wolf of Wall Street is a prime example. Goodfellas and Casino were, to some degree, examples of the blind hero going off a cliff, undone by their vices.
But in this film, DeNiro and DiCaprio were never good guys. They didn’t become their enemies. They didn’t surrender to their vices. They were scumbags from frame one. Their undoing isn’t because their victims found the wherewithal to turn the tables, with the third little pig making stew out of the big bad wolf. Horrific tragedy ends because it has gone on too long not to be noticed by someone.
If Scorsese’s intention was to make a movie for white people, that got them to show up to an intervention, that’s pure genius. Cry me a river. Give the man his golden statue. If he didn’t realize this was out of his wheelhouse, and he gave star status to the villains, give him a pie in the face for outdoing Hollywood in its never-ending capacity to screw over the screwed-over.
