AceShowbiz - Lord Jamar, a legendary rapper better known nowadays for his unfiltered critiques, has stirred controversy with his recent interview on "The Art of Dialogue". The Brand Nubian MC criticized rising rapper Sexyy Red, targeting her appearance and even suggesting she smells like "a room full of sex." Jamar's comments didn't stop at the superficial; he also accused Sexyy Red of being an "industry plant," a term he uses to describe artists he believes the industry artificially promotes.
In the midst of these heated remarks, Sexyy Red did not stay silent. She reposted the interview clip on Instagram, responding with, "ask @chieffkeeffsossa do I stink." This rebuttal alludes to her rumored but unconfirmed relationship with Chief Keef. Both artists have maintained they are simply friends, although flirtatious social media posts and antics suggest otherwise.
Sexyy Red, who has often been targeted for her explicit music and supposed lack of talent, addressed the constant hate during an upcoming episode of HBO's "The Shop". In a teaser clip, she shared how skepticism and criticisms drive her to prove herself. "They still don't believe in me, so I'm just gonna show you who I am," she told Outkast rapper Andre 3000. His advice was straightforward, "Use it for fuel. Hater fuel, man, it's the best sh*t."
While Lord Jamar's comments may seem harsh, they reflect a broader sentiment within the hip-hop community. Many artists have been tagged as industry plants, not just Sexyy Red. Names like 6ix9ine also come up frequently in these discussions, reinforcing the belief that the music industry selectively boosts certain careers.
