Tuesday, July 30, 2024 - Rapper Lil Pump has sparked controversy by challenging Vice President Kamala Harris's racial identity, claiming she has no African heritage while reiterating his support for former President Donald Trump.
In a recent interview, Lil Pump echoed the sentiments of
fellow rapper Swae Lee, alleging that Harris "isn't Black" and is
solely of Indian descent. However, a simple search reveals that Kamala Harris
is of both Indian and Jamaican heritage, making Pump's claims factually
incorrect.
Despite the inaccuracies, Lil Pump doubled down on his
assertions during the interview and criticized Harris's record as the district
attorney of San Francisco. He claimed that she incarcerated over 1,500 people
for weed-related offences, a figure that has been both confirmed and disputed
by various fact-checkers.
Pump used this narrative to suggest that Harris's track
record is problematic, further endorsing Trump as the "great hope"
for the United States. He praised Trump's recent incident involving a bullet
wound, referring to it as "taking a bullet for democracy," and linked
it to his own Bitcoin endeavours.
In addition to his political commentary, Lil Pump reignited
his feud with rapper J. Cole by tagging and teasing him on Instagram while
playing Cole's song "Work Out" in the background, indicating that
Pump's provocative antics remain unchanged.
