Styles P has opened up about his political leanings, revealing why he decided to throw his support behind disgraced former President Donald Trump.
During a recent appearance on the Touré Show, the rapper explained he likes his racism served straight up, no chaser.
“I did prefer when Trump was in office over Biden and I can tell you clearly why. Black people paid more attention to what was going on,” began Styles P in a snippet of the chat shared via Instagram, before siding with Touré that more folks tuned in as they felt they were “in crisis” — a sentiment that resonates today.
“We were in crisis now but — I’d rather you have you tell me you don’t like me and know you don’t like me and you inform me than me have to guess it or you secretly don’t like me but you telling me you don’t like me. I think the government been doing that for ages.
“I’d rather deal with clear racism — just someone being who they are and letting you know where they come from.”
However, the rapper admitted he believed the “country sucked under both of them,” adding he doesn’t “support Trump in any way.”
The comments left fans divided, as they raced to the comment section to air out their thoughts.
“Simply put this is ignorant and he is trying to split hairs by saying Trump is better to know He is against you versus whatever person / form of government is against you but won’t admit it,” wrote one user via Instagram.
“There is not a silver lining in that and it is dishonest and there is parrot in this chat comparing this nonsense to Malcolm X and no Democratic President is going to stack the Court and openly tear down policies and laws meant to address what slavery and racism did n does.”
They added: “Education- college is the most and reliable path to economic security and that road is being closed.”
“He’s [one hundred emoji] right!! Hence why dems use us and discard us. They don’t have to earn our votes. Malcolm said exactly what Styles is saying. The fox & the Wolf! [one hundred emoji],” commented another.
Earlier this month, the rapper turned his attention to the ever-evolving music scene when he shared a time when SZA once unintentionally rained on his parade, after he discovered that it was the TDE singer’s song “Ghost In The Machine” that was trending online — not his 2005 mixtape.
“I got gassed one day [because] somebody told me ‘Ghost In The Machine’ was trending,” he revealed, as a guest on Talib Kweli‘s People’s Party podcast. “It wasn’t me, it was SZA! I was like, ‘Bout time these muthafuckas caught up. Muthafuckas! I got a whole bunch of other shit they about to catch up on.’”
He continued: “Wasn’t about me. I was like, “Oh shit, let me slow the fuck down and sit down for a second.”
SZA’s version appears on her 2022 album SOS and features an appearance from singer-songwriter Phoebe Bridgers.
The one user makes a good point, Biden isn’t stacking the courts and doing other stuff like that…but that’s only true if you’re too dull to realize that Biden and his party want the courts to harm minorities too. They’re the foil for Republicans and republicans are the foils for them. It’s political theater, both parties want this.
The dems have a 51-49 majority in the senate. They don’t have the votes to stack courts. Hell we can’t even get senior leaders in the military confirmed or promoted. This isn’t on Biden or dems, it’s squarely on republicans but y’all to busy focusing on who is president and not seeing that congress holds the power
lol the Dems want this, you’re a victim if you don’t realize. Biden literally calls McConnell a friend. Senator Feinstein lost power of attorney to her daughter but is still Senator..but is missing votes for judge appointments. And Biden has extended Trump’s border policies, his policies are even worse. He beat Haitian asylum seekers at the border. He’s creating more oil drilling sites than Trump did. Biden is Trumpesque. He said he’d cure cancer. He said if u don’t vote for me you’re not black. STOP IT! Both parties are the same thing they just use each other to create weirdos like you who think that in 2023 it’s normal we still have yet to have a president that fixes this crumbling nation.
@its Obstruction, you are aware that current rules in the senate allow for appointments and such to be conducted with simple majority, not 55 votes, right? As in, democrats have enough votes to do this stuff. And please don’t cry obstruction when I’m sure you’re happy when democrats do it when Republicans are in power. I’m so tired of dbags who are hypocritical, and can’t see past the two party facade. I like Trump, probably because I hate the GOP and DNC. You’re still mentally stuck under the facade that GOP and DNC are different l
The dems have a 51-49 majority in the senate. They don’t have the votes to stack courts. Hell we can’t even get senior leaders in the military confirmed or promoted.

Sorry ghost. I know not to fall into that trap. I’m not for either. Could care less but one motivates his base to hate and the other doesn’t. Both of their policies doesn’t do much for black communities. Push for change to the status quo.
I hate that ignorant I want my racism out in the open trope. Nah fool. I don’t want to be dealing with that shit at all. When you accept it and say at least I know, that just makes you look like a sucker because you’re going to lay down and take anything.
@silent_partner I think a major problem is that people can’t admit they are in fact racist, to some degree. I’d say nearly everyone harbors some racist thoughts about some group of people. If you.say you don’t, you’re lying. Because all humans are prejudice. It’s our instinct to avoid dangerous situations, so our brains establish patterns, and that is where racist ideology is birthed from. You have enough bad experience with any race or group as opposed to others, and you will try to avoid them, or harbor hateful thoughts about them. I honestly think all nations should be one people, one race. It would be much easier. Racism IMO comes from cultural differences. When ppl have different cultural norms, some of those will clash. I wouldn’t call myself a racist person, as I judge strangers based more so on other factors than skin color. I judge more on how someone speaks, how they choose to dress and present themselves to the world.
Cornpop was a bad dude
I never get it. When it’s blacks killing blacks we almost look at it as something cool and normal. When a white Persian does, there’s an uproar
You’re full of it. Not one black person looks at it as cool or normal. Stop your racism
How to spot a white person posting about black news. First giveaway, the use of “blacks” to describe us.
Yes, everything is racist. If you commit a crime and black or white cops arrest you, they are racist.
Yeah it’s just normalized and part of the culture. What music you got on deck ? 😂
It’s not ? Hmmmm
@silent_partner…. so, how would you describe white people… would you… call them… white? How should someone who isn’t black describe a black person? Should race be omitted from the description? Should it be illegal to use race to describe the characteristics of a human?
One time my uncle touched me in weird places while Trump was on the TV in the background. Ever since then, I can’t stand his ass. Let’s Go Biden !!!
I find it odd when the opening sentence of an article is clearly in contradiction to the the conclusion of the article, in this case the closing quote.
Saying he “decided to throw his support behind” Trump in the lede only to later quote him saying he doesn’t support Trump in any way is some raggedy, inconsistent journalism. Y’all used to be better than this.
He’s a dumb inbred motherfucker who tried to fuk his sister. That’s the reason.
Trump 2024.
I can’t understand you with all the trump dick in your mouth.
Go sniff Biden’s leg hair
Notice that they didn’t care about anything. Not that black people were in crisis, nothing. Only that he stated he doesn’t support Trump. That’s crazy. As long as no red hat, we can stay sleep smh
We’re going to see a lot more ignorant and uneducated takes from celebrities as election season gets closer. As well as this website doing whatever it can to divide us. Last I checked, Biden was a friend to Robert Byrd; and went in Charlemagne’s show and said; “if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black”. Might as well have said “boy” while he was at it. I know we like to pick and choose what we see and here because “orange man bad”, but just be honest and say you don’t like him outright and not make it a racist thing. Cause we all know it isn’t true. Let’s leave it with this; if you have a problem figuring out why Biden isn’t fit for president, then you haven’t been paying attention.
Whatever Uncle Tom needs to tell himself to look in the mirror I guess.

giving money, food stamps and a house to people who have kids or poor people doesn’t help. it creates laziness knowing they don’t have to do anything to have some $, food, and a roof over their heads. not having to pay rent or any bills while doing nothing sounds amazing. no motivation to better one’s self.
Yep. The welfare system is designed to keep people complacent and dependent on the government. Welfare should have been a hand up, not a hand out. Broken system. Generational dependence on the government shouldn’t exist, but it does, and thats where you see the highest rates of obesity, diabetes, violence, and other bad things that people who work for what they have generally have less of. Also, when you work for your life, you are always upgrading your living, and passing down to the next generation to build bigger than you did. Welfare state ensures no generational wealth is grown. But, it is their choice to live that way. Not for me.
Food for thought: “welfare” is often viewed as money to poor people, however something like the SNAP program cost the average tax payer around $40 per year. We also have a mass amount of Corporate Welfare, which rarely gets talked about, that cost that same taxpayer around $6500 per year. So Trump’s tax cuts went 95% to corporations and they don’t expire, but never did a thing about the corporate welfare. The people in power want to push all the blame towards poor people and their welfare, while taking money from corporations to keep corporate welfare alive and well.
Whoever wrote “Education- college is the most and reliable path to economic security” is indoctrinated beyond saving. That’s the most pathetic thing I’ve ever heard. Save up 10 grand and start a business, grow your own food, buy some land. All way better options than getting a student loan that makes you an indentured servant for 20 years.

The trees voted for the axe because they thought it was one of them. 🙄
