Lil Wayne Ripped For His Response To George Floyd Killing: We Should ‘Place The Blame On Ourselves’

by

Lil Wayne’s comments following the death of George Floyd have fans calling for the rapper to be canceled. His remarks about placing the ‘blame’ on ‘ourselves’ came during an IG Live with Fat Joe.

Fans are outraged after Lil Wayne addressed George Floyd in an Instagram Live with Fat Joe, suggesting that activists are also to blame for his tragic death — not just the police. “We have to stop placing the blame on the whole force and the whole everybody, or a certain race, or everybody with a badge… And if we want to place the blame on anybody, it should be ourselves for not doing more than what we think we’re doing.” Wayne said he believes that continued police violence against people of color may come from a lack of action after initial protesting. “Some people put a tweet out and they think they did something,” he said in the May 29 Instagram, which you can watch below.
