Lil Nas X went all out for Halloween by dressing up as Nicki Minaj from her “Super Bass” video, but not everybody was a fan of the look. On Saturday (October 31), Dave East took to his Instagram Stories to comment on the “Old Town Road” hitmaker’s costume choice.
“And y’all was mad at me about this n-gga,” East wrote below a photo comparing Lil Nas X’s outfit to Minaj’s.
He added in the next story, “BATI MON. BUN UP!!!!” along with a facepalm emoji.
Lil Nas responded to East’s comments by calling him out for being homophobic and correcting his spelling of Jamaican Patois.
“It’s ‘batty man,'” he wrote on Twitter. “N-ggas can’t even be homophobic the proper way smh butchering the hell out of the patois.”
Shortly after, he posted another tweet telling people to let him live in peace, writing, “Bro I don’t bother a soul in this industry. All I do is tweet and make bangers. Leave me alone damn.”
This isn’t the first time East and Lil Nas have exchanged words. In April 2019, East criticized the quality of “Old Town Road” while questioning the integrity of current Hip Hop music.
“This fucking ‘Old Town Road’ shit is fucking wack,” East said. “I don’t know what the fuck is going on with Hip Hop [or] rap. I ain’t no hater man, but that shit is wack with a cape on it. It’s super wack.”
Days later, Lil Nas acknowledged his comments in an interview on the Zach Sang Show, saying, “I have the No. 1 song in the country. I do not give a fuck about what Dave East is saying.”
East wasn’t the only rapper to share his thoughts on Lil Nas’ Halloween look. 50 Cent reacted to the photos in shock and took the opportunity to mention Young Buck and his alleged relationship with a transgender woman.
“What the fuck, Nikki come get him !!! Lol,” 50 wrote, with Lil Nas responding, “Why u in barb business?”
50 added, “I think young Buck & lil nas x might make a love connection, if he get a BBL LOL. He look like his last lover. junior is that you junior?”
Dave’s right the song’s super wack, but if Lil Nas X wants 2 dress up like Nicky who cares. Most of these rapper dress up like gangbangers, and rap ’bout the real n199az they f*ck with. So, not that different from Lil Nas X…..LOL
Dave East is corny af
I got no problem with gay people. They leaving more women for us. I do wish they would drop the flamboyant shit because it creates more division than unity. I could care less who you sleeping with, but at the same time it shouldn’t be shoved down my throat either. I got a lot more respect for the gay people who dont about being flamboyant. They just go about their business, act cool, and live life without being a walking billboard for gay culture.
damn yr insecure
It’s not insecure. It’s being grossed out about it. Respect it. Don’t shove it in people’s faces that don’t like it. It’s like meat to a vegan. Respect that space and back the fuck up!
Insecure about what bro ? Im just dropping an opinion. I think we are living in a world where falmboyance in the gay community is becoming outdated. I know some gay dudes that could probably whoop your ass (and mine too) Nobody gives a shit who they sleeping with anymore. Maybe its a religious thing. But as I stated before, the more gay dudes there are, the more women will be available for the taking. What straight man aint down with that ? Thats why I got no problem with gays.
Counter point, some of them are just being who they are. Them doing them doesn’t hurt or affect me in any way, so I say let them do what they want.
Young Thug wore a dress, Lil Uzi Vert wore a skirt, Kanye West wore a skirt too… just saying
Now if he would have rode a horse with a cowboy hat dressed as Nicki Minaj I might have gave em a little props
You undercover homos are the main ones saying “who cares”. Homosexuality is bad for the Black community. We don’t want this filth marketed towards children nor do we want adults confusing kids with trans bullshit. Heterosexuality is the foundation of civilization.
then stop leaving your kids behind for the trap and man up to be a dad. #ThatsIt
Butt Secks is great for chix. I’m all 4 it except for chix with dix.
WOW. I am going to stay out of this one.
That’s not what he said
This Lil X dude is mad fruity yo.
Duh, he’s gay…limp wrist and all
He should get 3 more gays and start a group called the Queer Quadrant. Since a quadrant is one-fourth of a circle, the 4 members unite to form a full circle/ass hole. That would be dope.
Disagreement with homosexuality doesn’t make one homophobic. It means you disagree with the lifestyle, not necessarily the person. I have a gay sibling, and though I disagree with his lifestyle, he’s my brother and I love him to death.
Lil Nas is being passed around the industry. Poor dudes gonna need anal surgery at a real young age to fix dat gap.
50cent shut the fuck up or your HANDLER gon come for you! Forgot you black? suck ass to demonrats
Hell Waits
All I do is make bangers lol.. come on. You have one track that’s been remixed ten times at least. It’s not hip hop. It’s garbage bullshit that frat boys and pop fans Listen to. A gimmick that nobody will care about years down the road
“You have one track that’s been remixed ten times at least”
