T.I., Spike Lee and other major entertainment industry figures are calling for three-month boycott of fashion designers Prada and Gucci, after both companies released products resembling blackface. Gucci, the most recent culprit for selling a black sweater design featuring that racist imagery, issued an apology stating they’re “turning this incident into a powerful learning moment.” Despite T.I. releasing several statements on social media breaking down why minorities should stop supporting the high-end brand, one entertainer who doesn’t care for the boycott is Floyd Mayweather. The boxing star and long-time rival of Tip’s was spotted outside a Gucci store in Beverly Hills, where the fighting champion didn’t care about the backlash and entertainers boycotting.
“Half of the people that’s on social media saying, ‘Don’t wear this, don’t wear that,’ I ain’t never seen none of them supporting The Money Team,” Mayweather told TMZ, before heading into the store on a shopping spree. In response to Floyd’s comments, T.I. takes aim at Mayweather on the track “F**k N***a.” Listen below.
