Fans Drag Bow Wow For Saying He Is Not Black But Mixed

Fans Drag Bow Wow For Saying He Is Not Black But Mixed

Yesterday, Bow Wow was seriously dragged for filth by his fans after he stated that he was not black even though the rapper denied ever making such a statement.

It all started when Bow Wow went on a Twitter rant two days ago about how he can’t relate to civil rights matters because he is of mixed race.

The 106&Park host then added that he doesn’t care about politics and chooses to stay out of it. This prompted a fan to point out to Bow Wow that his ancestors died to give him and black people nationwide the right to vote, so he should care. That was when the rapper clarified that he was mixed and not black. He even went ahead to share a photo of his estranged dad as proof.

Man i only believe what the eyes see. Im mixed. I dont know what my ancestors was doing. I only know what i see! https://t.co/OdDO2pvtBS

Soon enough, fans began to react to his tweets and many were disappointed at the rapper for denying his roots. After seeing the reactions from fans, the father of one took to his Twitter yesterday evening to recant his statement and lay blame on the media for reporting falsely.

I never not said im not black! F*** the media! A fan asked if i was mixed i said yeah. Big deal!https://t.co/tGGAg5H4Om

But, the damage was already done.

Bow Wow’s fans refused to let him go that easily and they made sure to remind him that his parents, despite his dad being mixed, are black people.

We live in a time when El DeBarge says he is Black but Bow Wow says he’s mixed. This is not the America I know.

Bow Wow need a slap in the back of his head like Carlton used to get on Fresh Prince.

Bow Wow claims he’s mixed so he can’t relate to black issues and Black Lives Matter but he was black enough to take jobs from BET.

When Bow Wow says that being mixed makes Civil Rights issues unrelatable, like he wasn’t at the BET Awards this year pic.twitter.com/WJPO5pSEmE

Bow Wow should have taken a cue from Amber Rose who finally agreed she is black after being bashed by fans for rejecting her black heritage.
