Chika Calls YG "Disgusting" For Filming Music Video During Breonna Taylor Protest

YG led a protest of over 50,000 people in Hollywood but Chika was disgusted by him filming a music video at the event.

Chika has been at the majority of Los Angeles protests following the murder of George Floyd, using her platform to promote change and seek justice for the countless people of color killed by police violence and racism. She has not been shy about calling out others, either for their lack of action at this time or for misusing their platforms. This week, she came for YG after being part of the protest.

"YG said he here to shoot a video," tweeted rapper Chika from the crowd. "I would like to go home. this feels incredibly disingenuous. but im glad people showed up. shooting a music video while breonna taylor’s killers are still walking the streets is fucking disgusting."

The Hollywood protest has been celebrated as one of the largest yet in Los Angeles. However, Chika is criticizing people for coming solely because they saw YG's name on the flyer. 

"You don’t say on a flyer, ‘This is a vigil, bring flowers, bring candles…’ You don’t use this moment to shoot a music video," she said in a video uploaded to Instagram. "Everything that we’ve been doing march-wise has working because of the way that we showed up. The way that we know what we are fighting for, the way that we are informed. This today was not that. If you saw YG’s name on a poster and you showed up because you saw YG’s name on a poster, you’re fucked because the lives lost was not enough to do that for you."

Do you think YG is wrong for filming a video at the protest?

Chika Calls Out Bhad Bhabie For Silence On George Floyd’s Murder

The young rapper is being called out for not speaking out about the violent acts of police officers against the black community.

Danielle Bregoli, better known as Bhad Bhabie, is known to stir up all kinds of trouble for herself with her loose lips, this time, however, it’s her lack of words that is causing controversy. Bhad Bhabie is being called out this morning by fellow female rapper Chika, after her silence on the murder of George Floyd and the series of demonstrations and protests that have been taking place across the country as a result. 

In a series of tweets, Chika points out that the infamous “Gucci Flip Flops” rapper, who usually has a hard time keeping her mouth shut, has not said a word about the ongoing fight against police brutality, nor has she participated in any protests or demonstrations. Bregoli has neither used her platform nor her privilege to speak out about police brutality. Chika points out in the tweet, “we really ain’t caught her outside not once. hmm.”

Twitter chimed in, agreeing with Chika and pointing out the hypocrisy of it all. Just last year, Bregoli was viciously defending her right to wear box braids and participate in other aspects of Black culture, however, this energy was nowhere to be found in response to the murder of George Floyd. 

Chika followed that up with a quote from Bregoli herself, thus further hammering in her point: "“you can’t act a color” yeah, u can shorty. u actin mad white," she wrote.

Do you guys think Bhad Bhabie will be shamed into speaking up? Let us know what you guys think.

Ari took to Instagram to share a video of herself on the set of a music video. Ari was posing in the mirror after having her hair straightened. Her team is in the background guiding her on how to pose, but it looks as if Ari didn’t need any help. In the second slide of her post, Ari films herself as she gets pampered by her glam squad.

Chika told Ari she was “BAD. THAT’S WHAT YOU ARE. BAD,” while Winnie Harlow complimented the singer’s “Healthy hair glowing face ?.” In the past, Ari has addressed trolls who tell her that she’s unattractive. ” Y’all are disgusting and the reason people self medicate and get surgery. Just f*ckin stop,” she tweeted back in December 2019. Check out Ari Lennox below.
