Lil Yachty Catches Heat After Getting In The Studio With Viral Rapper Ian

by

Lil Yachty is an artist who has worked with plenty of other young artists in the past. However, sometimes he elicits controversy with these collaborations. Back in the day, he did a lot of work with Detroit artists. Subsequently, after moving on to different styles, Yachty got hit with the colonizer allegations that Drake sometimes receives. Moreover, the artist has been under fire in the past for the way he has spoken about hip-hop and the culture in general. Oftentimes, he has left a bad taste, even if he didn’t mean anything inherently negative.

Now, Yachty is catching some heat for his latest collaborator. Below, you can see that Yachty is working with Ian. For those who may not know, Ian is a young white rapper whose entire schtick is that he is a rich white kid from the suburbs. He also imitates flows from Chief Keef, Yeat, and sometimes even Playboi Carti. His new project Valedictorian has proven to be a success, albeit a controversial one. Many see him as a culture vulture and everything that is wrong with the music industry today. Needless to say, you can see how Yachty working with him could elicit some anger.
