“Jet ski” – better known as Lil Pump – may have slid right into a backlash recently over some racial epithets found in his song, ‘Butterfly Doors,’ but now he claims he’s learned the error of his ways.
Details below:
BUTTERFLY DOORS

The video above was uploaded as a preview ahead of the release of Pump’s newest single, ‘Butterfly Doors.’ In one part of the song, he raps: “Smoking on dope, they call me Yao Ming ’cause my eyes real low! (Ching chong!)”
To make matters worse, Pump’s added visual effect – him pulling the sides of his eyes to make them appear “slanted” – only sent many into a further outrage. Once he caught wind of the backlash, he took to Instagram on Tuesday (December 25) to offer an apology:
“I came here to tell you guys that I seen the whole thing going on on the internet and all that,” he said. “I came here to tell you that for my part, I’m sorry and I apologize for posting that. It was not my intentions to hurt nobody or do none of that, dead ass, ’cause I got Asian homies. You know, I fuck with everybody, ain’t got nothing against nobody.”
Care to hear the song in full? It awaits below:
I’m hearing more and more young people using racial epithets to sell their music then go carry a sign while screaming for racial equality!
I have no idea why I want to F^CK him. Like none but he can get it.
He’s hot… I’d suck his co ck as well
He’s 16…
He offers nothing of any real value anyway.
Mumble rapper….
That’s makes him a racist.
People angry about anything now geez
Wow what a disgusting thing to do. Did Kanye put him up to this?
