Lil Yachty is not a fan of the Black Lives Matter organization following their previous allegations of financial mismanagement.
In a new episode of Quenlin Blackwell’s cooking showFEEDING STARVING INFLUENCERS, Blackwell brought up Yachty recently spending $100k on a trip to Disney. She was curious how much he’d spent on charitable causes this year in comparison, to which he noted the year had only just started.
Undeterred, Blackwell then asked about 2024 and even 2023.
“It’s hard to gauge. It’s just blurry,” he replied. “I be doing so much.”

She then asked if he’d supported Black Lives Matter.
“BLM? BLM is a scam. BLM – it was literally a scam,” he said emphatically. “They had bought mansions and… You probably wouldn’t know anything about it because you don’t care about Black people and you don’t follow Black news.”
BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors resigned in 2021 amid scrutiny over the organization’s finances, particularly after reports surfaced about her purchasing multiple properties including a $6 million mansion in Southern California. The BLM Global Network Foundation also faced investigations into its handling of donations, and some affiliated chapters distanced themselves from the main organization due to concerns over transparency.
These were isolated incidents, however, and the organization continues to operate.

“I want to show my appreciation to my big brother Tyler, The Creator,” he said in a clip from a show last month. “That man’s a muthafuckin genius. That man has paved the way.
“We might never get another creative like that again for the next 20, 30, 40, 50, 100 years. So I just make sure I give my appreciation. That man is special!”
The international tour kicked off on February 4 in St. Paul, MN and will continue through September 4 with dates throughout the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia.
