In the realm of today’s music news, one topic that’s garnering attention is the concern expressed by rapper Boosie Badazz about his son’s weed smoking habits. Notably, these concerns were voiced during a recent Instagram Live stream, a platform increasingly used by celebrities to engage with their fans.
Boosie’s Revelation on Instagram Live
During the live session, the Baton Rouge rapper asked someone off-camera about his son, Tootie Raww’s whereabouts. Upon hearing that his son was outside in his car probably smoking, Boosie remarked, “He gon’ turn into a weed plant“. He further described his son as a weed plant wearing shoes, insinuating that his son’s life revolves excessively around smoking.
Boosie’s Self-Reflection
However, the 41-year-old rapper also confessed that he was not very different at his son’s age, admitting to his own past indulgences. In a light-hearted yet concerned tone, Boosie communicated his worries about his son’s smoking habits, especially so early in the morning.
“First thing you do in the morning, huh?” he said, to which Tootie smiled and noted he didn’t even notice him there. “That’s how loaded you is!” Boosie said. “The car door been open. You ain’t even see me?”
A Father’s Fear
Apart from his son’s penchant for weed, Boosie has also expressed more grave concerns for Tootie. He fears the implications of his son’s possible involvement in serious altercations with other rappers like YoungBoy Never Broke Again and Kodak Black.
“I wouldn’t know what to do if my son get a murder charge,” he said, suggesting he didn’t like seeing Tootie get into beef with rappers. “I gotta stop him from crashing out. Then it worry me more all them lil n***as around him clutching. It’s easy for something to happen… Got me worried as a daddy.”
Past Controversies
Despite his worries, Boosie and his son have not been without their share of controversies. Last year, they faced significant backlash over a video that showed them examining a woman’s private parts with a magnifying glass. Boosie was heard instructing his then 18-year-old son, “Look at the pussy, son.” This incident led to widespread criticism, especially considering Boosie’s past homophobic rants against rapper Lil Nas X for his overt sexual expressions in his music videos.
In conclusion, as a father, Boosie’s concerns for his son seem justified, especially given the potential health and legal implications of excessive cannabis use. However, his past actions and public statements may make it difficult for him to effectively guide his son
