Boosie Badazz evidently wants NFL quarterback Drew Brees kicked off the New Orleans Saints team as soon as possible. On Thursday (June 4), the Baton Rouge-bred rapper renounced his previous support for the Brees-led team via Instagram.
He shared a photo of Brees and his wife Brittany all smiles as he poses with Donald Trump and his wife Melania Trump.
“DAM @drewbrees U SHOWED YO TRUE COLORS U LET ME DOWN BRO THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS A BIG PART OF YOUR CAREER MF,” he wrote in all caps. “LOOK LIKE IM GOING FOR THE FALCONS WHEN THEY PLAY SAINTS. I STILL AINT PUT GUCCI BACK ON YET SO AS LONG AS YOU QUARTERBACK IM NOT SUPPORTING THE SAINTS.
“u were so happy on this pic. I know trump was giving your wife that EYE. check her dm he’s probably n it. TRADE HIM TRADE HIM TRADE HIM TRADE HIM TRADE HIM.”
Brees came under fire earlier this week after he made some polarizing comments regarding the George Floyd protests that have erupted across the country. During an interview with Yahoo Finance, Brees said, he would “never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States of America.”
Killer Mike quickly took Brees to task, pointing out the hypocrisy behind his statement while appearing on ESPN’s Jalen & Jacoby.
“I would like to know what he considers disrespect because when I travel and we perform in Germany, I never see a Nazi flag,” the Run The Jewels MC said. “I don’t see streets named for Nazis because Nazis are a part of history that Germany understands was a cancer and corrupt and they’ve ridden themselves of [it].
Killer Mike Picks Apart Drew Brees' Flag Logic As Fans Blast 'RTJ4' Worldwide
“Drew Brees plays in the Deep South. As we travel through the South, we see the Confederate flag everywhere abounds. So if you’re gonna tell me about the flag and disrespecting the American flag, the fact that you live in a region that they still fly the rebel flag of the Confederate flag and you don’t adamantly speak against that on a regular basis just tells me you’re protecting the way of life or what you think is right.”
Brees has since apologized for his statement, writing, “I know there’s not much that I can say that would make things any better right now, but I just want you to see in my eyes how sorry I am for the comments that I made. I know that it hurt many people, especially friends, teammates, former teammates, loved ones, people that I care and respect deeply. That was never my intention.”
Check out his apology below.
Can anyone really say what Drew said that was wrong? Or we just going to keep running with this tired narrative? Who cares what celebrities say. Boosie rich. Is anyone starting to see a pattern for this way of thinking?
Nope, but this younger generation has been dumbed down, taught to hate their country, has no respect for their elders and are underachieving babies. So what do we expect from the generation of the constantly offended? I agree with Drew, but then again I’m in my late thirties and have good parents. You would never see me looting, kneeling and burning our flag.
I agree with everything you just said. Never seen a generation fight so hard to have their rights taken either. Sad times we live in.
Yes, what he said was wrong. I can say that. Thanks
Drew Brees said himself that what he said was wrong!!!
All the Drew haters are claiming he showed his true colors…what would those colors be? Red, white and blue. These assholes hate American, than pack your shit and move to China. You really think a flag needs to be disrespected just because a thug culture has ruined an entire race? How about grow the F up already and change your habits that allow criminals to be martyrs. You people are your own worse enemy. I’m a minority and I made a good life for myself. I don’t believe in ‘systemic racism’ that’s all victim mentality propaganda to keep the dumb voting blue. Poverty pimps love making you think that your life sucks because of racism. Grow the F Up.
Serious question for the black Americans……who are you voting for next election? Real talk. If you are not voting…you have no voice or opinion on this matter. So again, I ask…..who are you voting for?
Kneeling during the anthem is not disrespectful its a form of protest. What is disrespectful is the cover up and killing of UNARMED CITIZENS! No one feels disrespected when police have the flag stitched to their uniforms and commit murder? The flag and freedom is not being disrespected then? Some members of public were outraged when Kap took the knee and peacefully protested but now they are angry when people are protesting and there is looting. Kap silent protest doesn’t seem so bad now does it? While we are on the topic of respect for the military and the men and women who serve, DID YOU KNOW that 1 million black service men who fought in the war came back and were DENIED their GI benefits that were promised to them! The white service members received the benefits! Those same F’ing benefits could have been used to buy homes, send kids to college and improve the lives of black families! Where is the damn outrage on this issue? That is not disrespectful??
Its long history of discrimination and effects are long lasting and generational. So when you hear “these people are lazy and dont want to work” look at history. From not being allowed to move, buy houses and get mortgages in white neighborhoods, to being denied access to certain schools and education to being denied GI benefits that were given to all war vets except black war vets. Understand the bigotry! Killer Mike makes good point about Confederate flag flying in deep South.
Looks like a lot of feelings in this rant. The only truth you told was the about the GI bill for black Americans that fought in WW2. We can all agree that’s terrible. We as a country have a made a lot of progress since then. People like you want to look to the past as always instead of looking at the future and progress we made. I had to add to your comment about the GIs since you left our specifics. You have the right to say and do as you please within reason. But. There are consequences and repercussions to those actions. Ain’t nothing in this life free. Not even speech. Kaepernick lost his message due to his own actions. Disrespecting the country that you make the money you make in is just not what you do. Disrespecting this country that you live in is not how try to prove your point. Kaepernick wanted to be a paid martyr. He got part of his wish. He’s laid, but he ain’t no martyr. Have a good day.
You speak of progress yet unarmed black people are still being killed by police. The dude makes a good point. How come no one mad that police have American flag stiched on their uniforms and kill unarmed citizens? Thats disrespectful to the flag. progress? Maybe from your white privilege perspective. People complaining saying talking about the past. You don’t think the actions and policies of the past don’t have any impact that lasts for decades and generations? You think all that discrimination only affected the people at that time and not their children? Progress?? GTFOH white man! A black man can’t even go to the park to watch birds without a white Karen (who disobeys the dogs on leash rule) threatening to call the police saying a black man’s presence is threatening. You speak of progress? Again your white privilege! Because you would never know what its like to be black and just want to walk in a park and be threatened. Whites mad because they are morally wrong and their way of life is being challenged. This website full of white privileged kids who don’t understand shit
Seems like black lives matter only when a white person kills a black person. It seems like it doesn’t matter for black on black crime. Motherfuckers need to start taking responsibility for their actions and life.
As if this little sewer rat has any say in the matter. Drew Brees has down more for the state of Louisiana than this dirtbag criminal could do in 20 lifetimes. Brees said nothing wrong you are all acting like petulant children. These riots have created a cult like following completely devoid of common sense. Normal decent people are done with this shit its gone way over board and its become beyond ridiculous. Kiss my ass in advance to any ABFs who dont like hearing the truth.
Drew Brees has done a ton of charity work and donated money to Louisiana- more than any of the black players on his team – So now no one can have an opinion? If it doesn’t agree with everyone else -It is all fine and dandy to protest – the problem is the protest at the flag and during NFL games is ridiculous- players are paid to play football- I know I can’t protest at work? Can you?
If he feels the right to stand then he should be able to stand without being called a racist – if he likes TRUMP then so what -it still doesn’t make him a racist – All you people out there need to shut up – and leave him alone –
Get a fucking life –
All these athletes and celebrities do is yap their fucking. After the smoke clears they never try to give back to the inner cities. Brees has gave back and has the right to give his opinion.
