A New Lil Yachty Song Has Sparked The Ire Of Megan Thee Stallion Fans For Making Her Shooting A Punchline

Lil Yachty’s association with Michigan’s underground rap scene has been a gift to his rap reputation, but lately, it seems like it’s starting to become a curse. The penchant of rappers like BabyTron and Sada Baby to spit completely unhinged, utterly reckless punchlines has beld into Yachty’s own approach to rap, but thanks to his higher profile, it’s gotten him into hot water.

First, there was his reference to Billie Eilish’s breasts in his verse for Drake’s “Another Late Night.” While she laughed it off, he’s now catching heat for cosigning a rapper fans think dissed Megan Thee Stallion.

In a new song called “Sydney,” Yachty teams up with a burgeoning Brooklyn rapper named DONTKALLMELUXXY to flex raps over a sped-up version of Beanie Sigel’s 2005 single “Feel It In The Air.” The newer rapper courts controversy with his verse, threatening, “Better watch where you step or get treated like Megan Thee Stallion,” a clear reference to the July 2020 shooting of the Houston rapper by Toronto rapper Tory Lanez, who opened fire at Meg’s feet after an argument, leaving bullet fragments in her heels and leading to three long years of legal entanglements and harrassment for the “Savage” rapper.

Fans are naturally fairly turned off by this turn of phrase, responding with disappointment and anger on Twitter (not X).

Megan’s fans similarly came to her defense when Drake similarly referenced the shooting for a groaner of a punchline on his own For All The Dogs cut, “Circo Loco.” The line drew the ire of Megan herself, who at first defended the star, then snapped upon realizing just what the line said. “Stop using my shooting for clout b*tch ass N****s!” she wrote. “Since when tf is it cool to joke abt women getting shot ! You n****s especially RAP N****S ARE LAME! Ready to boycott bout shoes and clothes but dog pile on a black woman when she say one of y’all homeboys abused her.”

In any case, considering DONTKALLMELUXXY only has 539 subcribers on YouTube and less than 4,000 on Spotify, we can probably just assume that all this was just a bid for attention. Therefore, the best response is to probably ignore him and let him remain obscure. As for Yachty, let’s hope he’s a bit more judicious with his cosign in the future, because this wasn’t worth it.

Lil Yachty’s relentless run is seemingly never going to end at this point. The eccentric rapper hailing from Georgia arguably has the biggest year in 2023 out of anyone. From dropping his experimental and psychedelic journey that was Let’s Start Here, to working with J. Cole on “The Secret Recipe,” this guy was all over the place. Now, he is back once again with someone who he is familiar with, but not many may know.

DontKallMeLuxxy is also a rapper and he is from Brooklyn, New York. His career is pretty minimal even though he has been dropping since 2017. He has dropped five singles in the past year or so and has one album to his name. That would be Bishop, which dropped right around the time he got his start. As we mentioned, he and Yachty have a history together. Together they dropped a track called “Trance” in 2020.

Listen To “SYDNEY” By DontKallMeLuxxy And Lil Yachty

Now, they are back for a YouTube exclusive track called “SYDNEY.” While it is another big moment for Luxxy, it comes with a caveat. If you are a Megan Thee Stallion fan, you may want to turn away from this one. According to Uproxx, people are bashing the track for the distasteful reference Luxxy makes in regards to the Tory Lanez fiasco. He raps, “That n**** always there better watch where you step get treated like Megan Thee Stallion.” Her supporters were quick to flame him on Twitter, saying, “That Megan Thee Stallion bar was NOT necessary or needed.” Another goes, “Every tongue that rises against Megan Thee Stallion will fall.” It will be interesting to see if she has anything to say about this.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “SYDNEY,” by DontKallMeLuxxy and Lil Yachty? Who had the better performance and why? Is Luxxy’s bar about Megan Thee Stallion uncalled for?
