Teen rapper Bhad Bhabie is denying claims that she is trying to be Black — after last week’s viral “Blackfishing” incident.
She then made bizarre comparisons between growing up in the hood to Tarzan and the jungle — and there were a few monkeys in there for good measure too.
“Y’all say that I try to be Black because I — maybe [the] reason is because I grew up in the hood. Tarzan, right? The story of Tarzan…he was with the monkeys,” Bhabie said. “He grew up with that, that’s all he knows…they only know what’s been around them, they only know what’s been around them.”
She added, “I can’t help it if I act ‘a little bit hood’ or what y’all would say is ‘more Black.'”
If she had just been silent, this might have all died down — but making money comparisons when speaking about the Black community is never a good idea.
