Sexxy Red Responds To Critics Who Say She’s Misguiding Black Women
Sexxy Red is clapping back at critics who think the “Pound Town” rapper is partly responsible for “misguiding” Black women.
One Twitter took aim at Sexxy Red on Tuesday, September, 19 in a tweet that accused the St. Louis rapper of being an industry plant tasked with leading Black women down the wrong path.
“Sexyy Red was really put out to misguide our blk women , And ITS WORKING
,” they wrote.
Once the “SkeeYee” rapper caught wind of the shady tweet, she issued a swift response that seemingly explained her goal when making music.
“Makin y’all shake a** misguiding y’all?” Sexxy Red asked.

There were many who fired off at the critic to defend Sexxy Red by noting male rappers’ long history of violent and misogynistic rap lyrics.
“Tweet about the black men rapping tryna ruin the community, they been around A LOT longer,” one user quipped.
“Y’all always wanna have a come to Jesus black community meeting about female rappers. But when it’s males y’all wanna say that their experience they’re rapping about or they jus having fun,” another user explained.
“Sexy red will never represent all black women. Her music is just hype and fun to rap.”
