Meek Mill has offered up his thoughts on boxer Ryan Garcia‘s wild claim that Lil Wayne gave him permission to use the N-word.
The controversial fighter, who has made headlines for a series of bizarre outbursts in recent months, sparked outrage on Thursday (July 4) by going on a social media rant in which he used the N-word and invoked the Ku Klux Klan.
“I hate n-ggas. I’m anti-Black,” Garcia, who is of Mexican heritage, said during an X Spaces broadcast with other users. “I’m KKK, n-gga. I hate n-ggas […] Let’s go bring George Floyd back to life and kill that n-gga.”
The racist language continued on his X account where he wrote: “I love n-ggas” and “Lil Wayne said I can say the N Word.”
Meek Mill responded to the latter posts on his Instagram Stories, questioning Garcia’s mental health.
“Doing anything for money can mess your brain up and now you really broke-n,” he wrote. “This life ain’t for everyone it’s cool to be normal and smart!”
Garcia later apologized for his comments and claimed that he was “trolling,” but that didn’t prevent him from being banned by the World Boxing Council.
“Exercising my authority … I am hereby expelling Ryan Garcia from any activity with our organization,” WBC president, Mauricio Sulaiman, wrote on X. “We reject any form of discrimination.”
Meek isn’t the only figure who has taken issue with the boxer’s remarks.
Former NBA player and current All The Smoke podcaster Stephen Jackson also slammed Garcia in a video posted to Instagram, saying: “First you go from taking steroids then you talking about digging George Floyd up and killing him again? Now you talking about you hate n-ggas and you wanna join the KKK?
“Look, dawg, you need to get some help, bro, because we don’t play by the same rules that you play by in that ring, dawg. I’m just telling you, just like I told you in the DM when I told you to get some help because it’s a whole different ballgame out here, bro. Anyone that gotta bring up the dead is dying inside. You a clout chaser. That’s all you are. You’re looking for attention.
“You tryna live a life that you didn’t grow up in. You’re not that, Ryan. Okay? You a boxer. Stick to that, bro. Keep George Floyd’s name out your mouth. If you wanna join the KKK like you said on Clubhouse, go ahead, just don’t fuck with us. And don’t expect us to fuck with you.”
Lil Wayne, for his part, has yet to respond to Garcia’s claim.
That’s what’s up! My sister’s boyfriend is half black. He gave me a pass to drop the N bomb too. Me and the homies love to call each other the n-word, as long as nobody can hear us 🙂

My skin is more pink looking than white tbh
The Mexican OT says it a lot. No outrage over that huh
Pretty sure it doesn’t come after the phrase “I hate…” when he uses it…
