BET Hip Hop Awards 2016 - Alternative Views

Floyd Mayweather rubbed a lot of people the wrong way this week with his All Lives Matter rant, but the King of the South, T.I., slammed the boxer by spitting nothing but facts.

Tip has always been vocal about his stance on the Black Lives Matter movement, so it comes as no surprise that he was not here for Mayweather’s questionable remarks. He took to Instagram to address Floyd’s comments, saying, “Don’t get so lost in personal possession or individual achievement that you lose sight of the things that are larger than all of us…Freedom, equality, justice, human rights,qualities of life that have been withheld (or given out sparingly) from our people for generations (400 yrs approximately).”

The rapper respectfully ended the post, telling Floyd, “Just know I ain’t looking to clown you,I’m just trying to enlighten you,hoping that with better insight you can use your powers for good.”

This is not the first time T.I. and Floyd had an exchange of words. Back in 2014, the stars had an altercation in Las Vegas after Mayweather allegedly claimed to have slept with Tip’s wife Tiny.
