A$AP Rocky recently caught some serious flak when these 2015 comments about the BLM movement surfaced online.
“They’re not forcing me to do s***. I’m just gonna stay black and die. Why, because I’m black? So every time something happens because I’m black I gotta stand up? What the f*** am I, Al Sharpton now? I’m A$AP Rocky. I did not sign up to be no political activist. I wanna talk about my motherf***’ lean, my best friend dying, the girls that come in and out of my life, the jiggy fashion that I wear, my new inspirations in drugs!
I don’t wanna talk about no f*** Ferguson and s*** because I don’t live over there! I live in f**** Soho and Beverly Hills. I can’t relate. I’m in the studio; I’m in these fashion studios; I’m in these b***s’ drawers. I’m not doing anything outside of that. That’s my life.”
During the Harlem MC’s 2015 interview with Time Out, he spoke about Michael Brown’s murder in Ferguson, Missouri — thus bringing us to the current criticism he’s receiving today.
Pretty Flacko didn’t take it lightly — coming out swinging again on this twitter rant that explained his reason for wanting to be left out of the social movement.
