Boosie Badazz has maintained that heâs anything but opinionated when it comes to social issues, this time taking aim at âBel-Air,â the re-imagination of the beloved sitcom âThe Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,â explaining why he refuses to watch.
On Thursday (February 23) the controversial rapper took to Twitter where he aired his disgust for the Peacock original, starring Coco Jones, Olly Sholotan, Jabari Banks, and Adrian Holmes, to name a few.

Meanwhile, fans of the show â which recently released its second season â quickly rushed to its defense stating that the reboot is more representative of current times. âI feel like this show is dealing with some truthfully realities. I havenât seen Will sell drugs. He was hustling basketball games.. now Karlton hanging with white boys so yeah he doing coke!,â suggested one user. âNah, Carlton snorting Xanax.. itâs really good just watch it,â added another follower informing that it was not cocaine but prescription drugs that Carlton was snorting.

While others seemed to spiral over claims that Will was âslangin iron,â as well as how much the new drama has evolved. âYeah them West Philadelphia streetz be talkin! They say when he wasnât playin ball he was most definitely outside slangin that iron..â alleged one fan. âAnd Ashley Gay, The Mama Almost Cheated, And The Butler Is A Assassin [laughing emoji],â another user pointed out.
Boosieâs declaration against consuming content that doesnât meet his ideal viewing requirements comes on the heels of his remarks regarding his daughterâs sexuality. Earlier this week, the Baton Rouge native joined DJ Vlad for an explosive interview, where he reflected on the moment he learned about his oldest daughterâs sexual preferences even though he has vehemently bashed homosexuality in the past.

âEven though it wonât be accepted as far as â because I donât want nobody in my other family to think itâs okay,â he explained. âBut what she does, weâre gonna love her to death. But at the same time, our Southern family has never been that way.
âItâs never been accepted. But at the same time, sheâs grown and she can do what the hell she wants. Sheâs old enough to know what she wants and thatâs her.â
Boosie continued: âI learned of it through social media. Like you, I woke up to it⌠She never came to me and talked to me about relationships.â
Boosie Badazz has repeatedly spoken out condemning homosexuality to the point heâs even predicted an all-gay world in the future.
Heâs also directed hateful words at Lil Nas X, as well as Dwyane Wadeâs transgender daughter, Zaya.
