Rapper Boosie Badazz has jumped into the chat. And by “chat,” we mean a full-blown internet debate. This time, he’s defending Jaden Ivey after the Chicago Bulls cut ties with him over some anti-LGBTQ comments. Yes, that escalated quickly.
Jaden Ivey, an NBA player with a lot of potential, somehow went from hoop dreams to headline drama. The Bulls apparently weren’t feeling his comments at all. So they said, “Yes, no thanks,” and moved on. Corporate decisions can be very swift when controversy shows up uninvited.
Enter Boosie.
Now, if you know Boosie, you already know he is never shy about sharing his opinions. In fact, he treats Twitter like it’s his personal diary. So of course, he had something to say. And surprise, surprise, he took Ivey’s side.

While Boosie Badazz defended Ivey after he was cancelled for his comments, the No Juice rapper went on X and shared his opinion on the whole matter. As Boosie Badazz began his long post by mentioning how he thinks there is no more freedom of speech anymore, he said:
“THIS IS SAD. ITS NO MORE FREEDOM OF SPEECH ANYMORE SMH COMEDIANS CANT EVEN MAKE JOKES ABOUT IT NO MORE. THE POWER THAT HAS BEEN GIVING TO COMMUNITY IS OUTRAGEOUS.”
Boosie added:
“STRAIGHT MEN N WOMEN NO LONGER HAVE A VOICE ANYMORE SMH IF WE SPEAK ITS TAKEN AS HATE. N I SEE NOONE PREACHING HATE,HONESTLY. JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE DONT AGREE DOESNT MEAN ITS HATE.
“ITS SAD HOW ITS SO EASY TO GET CANCELLED FOR YOUR OWN BELIEFS .YOU CANT EVEN MAKE A STATEMENT LIKE ‘I ONLY LIKE PUSSY’ N IT WILL BE TAKING AS A SHOT TO THE COMMUNITY. I ALSO I THINK PEOPLE N THAT COMMUNITY SHOULD STAND UP N SPEAK WHEN PEOPLE GET BANNED FOR NOT AGREEING.”
“WHY BE QUIET WHEN YOUR ACCEPTANCE IS GREATER THAN EVER?ITS SO MANY PEOPLE WITH POWER WHO R REALLY AFRAID.CORPORATIONS,LEAGUES ETC R AFRAID.BILLIONAIRES R AFRAID .TRUMP N ELON THE ONLY 2 POWERFUL PEOPLE WITH NUTS TO DISAGREE OUT LOUD.”
Boosie concluded saying:
“WHAT IF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS WAS TAKING FROM YOUR SON FOR NOT AGGREEING WITH CERTAIN THINGS N SPEAKING THE BIBLE, HOW WOULD U FEEL ? Hopefully Jaden Ivey gets gets another contract to feed his family despite his remarks.”
So what happens next? Who knows. Maybe things cool down, maybe they won’t. The internet has a very long memory and a very short patience.
One thing is certain though: when Boosie jumps into a controversy, it’s never going to be quiet.
