‘Must Be Nice’ hitmaker Lyfe Jennings must be in the mood for drama.
The R&B singer-songwriter, already on the lips of many for claiming he sang for infamous serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer when the two were in jail at the same time, continues to hit back at detractors who suggest he’s using the murderer’s name for clout.
Earning side-eyes from critics for reflecting glowingly on the interaction (even referring to Dahmer as “the little homie”), Jennings spent most of the week on Instagram sharing a 3-part story about his experience with the man who killed and reportedly cannibalized mostly young men of color in the 80’s and 90’s.
And while interest in Dahmer’s gruesome story has been renewed thanks to the wildly popular Netflix series ‘Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story,’ it’s also come under fire for being insensitive to the victims’ families.
Let Lyfe tell it, however, that criticism is misplaced as Jeffrey’s killings weren’t the only things doing damage to Black families at the time. Read his statement inside.

As seen in the Instagram post captured by our friends at TSR, Jennings took to Instagram to issue an eyebrow-raising statement about Dahmer.
“Drugs done killed way more Black families than Jeffrey Dahmer, but ya so disgusted by him but ya have normalized drugs in songs and videos. WTF?,” he shared.
Drawing a swift uproar, the controversial post was flooded with comments from people questioning the comparison. Once the hoopla got to be too much, Lyfe responded Thursday (October 6) by threatening to delete his IG page.
