Waka Flocka Flame appeared on The Breakfast Club today (September 18) and criticized society for breaking down the traditional family structure.
“You know what the world is today? Women afraid to be a wife and young males is afraid to be men,” Waka Flocka Flame says. “It’s not cool. They’re not marketing that. They don’t market husbands and wives no more. They’re marketing young girls, transgenders. They’re marketing evil. It’s really evil.”
He says that the glorification of the transgender lifestyle, specifically through Caitlyn Jenner’s television show, I Am Cait, is harming the youth.
“I ain’t got nothing against nobody’s preferences, but putting it on TV, that’s crazy,” he says. “Kids is the only people watching TV. You know adults is too busy, man. They’re trying to control life. So you can’t stop your kids from watching certain channels. They’re gonna watch it.
“I ain’t saying nothing against Bruce Jenner,” he continues. “You are who you are when God made you, not who you became after he did. That’s how I just feel. You rebuking God, man. God ain’t put them feelings in you, man. That’s the Devil playing tricks on your mind. That’s a test from God. If you can’t outbeat that one task and you believe that, then you can believe everything else and you going down that way.”
Elsewhere in the interview, the Atlanta rapper explains why he doesn’t wear diamond jewelry anymore. He details seeing a teenage boy in another country who had never owned a pair of shoes.
“I was giving my diamond chains and breaking it apart,” he says. “I’m dead serious. It changed my perception on life.”
Waka says that he doesn’t see a need to prove his wealth to anyone.
“You know I got paper,” he says. “Why I gotta keep showing you every day? Why I gotta keep buying these new cars? Why? Why I gotta keep buying brands that ain’t doing nothing for the people that I’m around?”
Waka Flocka Flame announced in April that he is running for president of the United States. Issues on his platform include education and empowering women.

Wow glad to see a dude like this wisening up and speaking on real matters. Respect to waka
If this guy is speaking from his heart,then he’s the right one to Preside America,Respect waka,America needs people like you who call women,women and men, men,”you are who you are when God created you” very true
Waka is one of those dudes I like to hear more in interviews than actual music. His interviews are always intriguing.
Ah, he believes in God. That’s cute
Nowadays it’s cooler to worship the devil than believe in God.
My man has had a spiritual awakening. Takes people like this to reverse the stupid added logic going on nowadays
*assed
Good shit much respect to him, glad he’s not afraid to speak on his values and not conform to everything society deems acceptable. Shits not right what’s going on today. He’s got a lot of good points, bet he catches shit bc he has values and most importantly believes in God. Big up waka
Waka flaka aint a lyrical genious then again u respect real guys spittin real shit in interviews its changing that perception of him jus being a rapper. Hes a real foo. I come frm the east of palm springs ca. Eses fuck wit his shit too. Jus not the bitch boys
All Waka gotta do is start doing real ish n less Flaking.. Donate n forget about it (the thought of deception destorts your message) I read ppl in dis country saying dey hungry (USA) needs ta Eat First. I’m hungry lol
It would be dope to C him use a lot of that subject matter in some new music , not a fan tbh but that could change with the right message
So J Cole will never have to feel himself naked when they’re performing together?
Much Love , Peace God . . .
Waka Flocka should keep his mouth shut. He’s trying to be philosophical and failing. People should live the way they want to
He’s talking real shit here. As a Christian I do not like the way this world is going.
you think? so rapists and murderers should be able to continue raping and murdering with no judgment?
I’m proud of him, evolved into a man. Most of u mothafuckers are too stupid to realize he’s speaking the truth about society….. big salute from one father to another thank u
I always thought of Waka as a clown before I read this. I can tell hes matured and sees the world differently now. We need more people in hip hop to take this mindset and our culture will become positive instead of all the negative shit thats been going on.
Real Shyt Dawg
@Michigan stating that a person’s entire lifestyle and chosen identity is “put in their head by the devil” isn’t negative?
I think we should check with the easter bunny and see what he has to weigh in
Big Up Wacka…truth be told…
The ironic part is that waka has ALWAYS looked like a tranny. what a clown.
But he wasn’t. He stayed as a man but just had these stupid “swag” style.
Preach
he was on-point with these statements he made
Have several seats Waka Flocka Flame. Your whole career has been rebuking God.
HAHAHAHA best comment I’ve seen on this website FUCK YESSSS
you said it how is suppose to be told…dey are the devils advocate…real talk #FLAME
The comments here are hilarious. Look, I don’t give two shits about Caitlyn Jenner, I didn’t even know who Bruce Jenner was until the sex change. But using religion as an excuse for bigotry is the laziest bullshit cop out logic there is. Maybe Waka should actually read the bible properly sometime because it just about condemns everyone by modern standards. Given the church’s previous advocacy of slavery, he should know better than to use the god excuse when discussing people’s lifestyle choices. Idiot.
“I ain’t got nothing against nobody’s preferences, but putting it on TV, that’s crazy,” So how exactly is that bigotry? Saying something immoral is not hateful or unaccepting by any means. If i say child molesters are wrong for molesting children but they say hey i was born this way its who i am does that make me a bigot? Should they be able to have sex with children if thats what they want to do? No because its wrong and so is mutilating your genitals to become a woman but when its all over your tv screen it seems pretty normal to you. Wake up
saying something is immoral*
I have never bought any of his Cd’s and never liked him until now….. He is absolutely 100% correct! They are brainwashing kids. God don’t make mistakes and to say I’m a man but I’m supposed to be a women is wrong! Before Bruce Jenner had kids, before he won Olympic Gold, even before he took his first breath outside of the womb, he was a man…. And that’s the way he should live and die!
He is so right with this one , the kardashian family is evil and anybody who fucks with them
He’s right. I don’t care what doctors did to him he’s still a man
Waka for president
Waka is right those ideas comes from the devil to want children and molest them it’s also from the devil when people be mutilating your body from an idea of what they think is real. It’s a lie and the devil is a lie and creates choais and that’s exactly what is coming out of Hollywood girly boys and promoting lives with children sexually like Kylie and tyga.
