From his on-and-off-again war with openly gay rapper-singer Lil Nas X to slamming ‘The Color Purple‘ for its same-sex romantic themes, saying the media is using cartoons to “turn kids gay,” and more, ‘Zoom‘ hitmaker Boosie Badazz is no stranger to zooming to the top of headlines over the years for his disparaging remarks about the LGBTQ+ community.

And if recent commentary the 41-year-old rendered on social media is indication, his stance on the topic won’t be changing any time soon.

Like Madonna, political commentator and author Candace Owens is no stranger to garnering headlines for controversy.

Unlike the 65-year-old diva, Owens – who has been slammed over the years for ruffling the fan bases of Taylor Swift, Sam Smith, Lil Nas X, Beyonce, Lizzo, Cardi B, and more – thinks there should be an age limit set on performers.

Thanks to their respective high-profile relationships, business ventures, and social media followership, it’s arguable the City Girls are at their apex on the celebrity meter.

For those reasons and others, heads were scratched when Yung Miami and JT‘s long-awaited tertiary studio album – the October 20-released ‘Real A** Wh*res (RAW)‘ – debuted real low on the Billboard 200 thanks to reported sales of only 10,000 copies its first week.

In fact, the project – their first since 2020’s ‘City on Lock‘ – arrived at #117 and marks their lowest debut on the hitlist to date.

While some (like DJ Akademiks) have made headlines for their controversial opinion about the cause of the LP’s nonperformance, others – like rapper/reality star/podcast host Joe Budden – suggests sabotage is happening behind the scenes.

Where do you stand on the argument?
