He became the center of even bigger backlash when he dragged the Black Lives Matter movement during another Instagram live session. He was quoted saying, “why do I need to acknowledge the struggles of black people? Why do I have to? I know what the campaign is. I don’t give a f**k man, I’m still making money. Say I’m cancelled, say I’m cancelled. There’s nothing you can do about it.”
