Rapper Kanye West has received a lot of criticism for all his controversial statements that were made in the past couple of months. Ye lost his billionaire status after huge brands decided to cut ties with him due to his comments. However, this did not stop the rapper from making a controversial statement about NBA legend Michael Jordan last month. During an interview, he made some comments about the murder of Jordan’s father, James Jordan Sr. This did not sit well with rapper Boosie Badazz, who is a huge fan of the five-time champion.

Boosie is a huge fan of MJ so much so that he named his son after the Chicago Bulls legend. So it is no surprise to see him angry about West’s comments and suggesting the five-time MVP should sue him.
