Boosie Badazz has taken Soulja Boy to task over his assertion that he is “one of the last straight rappers in the game” during a recent Instagram Live rant.
On Thursday (December 29), the “Turn My Swag On” rapper seemingly fired a series of subliminal shots in NBA YoungBoy’s direction, reigniting their long-simmering beef. Although he didn’t name names, Soulja Boy went in on an unspecified rapper who paints his nails, labeling him and others like him “gay” while proclaiming to be “one of the last straight rappers in the game.”

Boosie Badazz took to Twitter on Friday (December 30), not quite in defense of his fellow Baton Rouge native, but rather all of the others who inadvertently got pulled into the conversation.
“EVERYBODY AINT GAY @souljaboy U KNOW WHO STAND ON BUIZNESS FOR THE REAL GANGSTERS #boosiebadazz CANT LET U SAY THAT MY NIGGA U KNOW IM [100 emoji] MY G #onbleek”
This isn’t the first time that Boosie — who has been called out for his own homophobia in the past— has taken to social media to defend his own sexuality. Earlier this month, he fired back at Gabrielle Union after she implied he’s secretly gay.
Union made the comments last month during an interview with Jemele Hill, where she addressed Boosie Badazz while defending her teenage stepdaughter Zaya Wade’s transition from male to female.

“He’s so preoccupied. It’s almost like, thou doth protest too much, Little Boos,” the actor said in the clip, which resurfaced on social media on December 4 and went viral. “You got a lot of dick on your mind!
“[Zaya and Lil Nas X live in his head] rent free! It’s like, ‘Sir.’ Something you want to go ahead and tell us? This is a safe space, we can be your sanctuary. I don’t think he had a safe space [growing up].”
Union’s comments came after Boosie had spoken out against Zaya’s transition, telling the teen’s father and Union’s husband, former NBA star Dwyane Wade, that he had “gone too fucking far.”
After repeatedly doubling down on his insensitive comments in the face of widespread backlash, the Badazz Music Syndicate boss later relented and apologized to Wade.

However, Boosie’s tone was less repentant after catching wind of Gabrielle Union’s resurfaced interview as he issued a belated response to the Bad Boys II actor via a series of angry, all-caps tweets.
After refuting her suggestion that he’s gay, Boosie turned his attention to D. Wade — who Union married in 2014 and shares one biological child with — and brought the three-time NBA champion’s sexuality into question.
