Someone commented ‘Ok…but are you still boycotting Gucci @troubleman31 ?!? That’s what I need to know because you did not answer the question. I’d hate for Mayweather to be right because I don’t like him. 😩’

Another follower said ‘You think TI and the few that didn’t buy for three months affected their stock price? Meanwhile, the Kardashians, Mayweather, and their regular white clients are doubling on purchases during those three months. Even Draco was buying headbands during that time. I assure it was no loss for Gucci. I would need to see numbers…’

Someone else wrote ‘You know T. I is caught when he using regular words. I was expecting some new vocab from him 🙄’

A person believes that ‘Generational mental slavery is the new slave era 🤷🏽‍♀️ Cuz their really raising their kids to believe that systematic racism is normal and acceptable cuz it’s easier and less scary to confront the issue head-on. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️’

One other commenter wrote that ‘What he needed to do was understand the purpose of the boycott, and that’s what makes his statement invalid. The goal was to let Gucci understand the impact that the black buyer holds in numbers… and their numbers were affected.’

Tip recently took to social media where he slammed Gucci decided to sell an odd sweater that resembled blackface in the middle of Black History Month.
