Boosie Badazz is a hip-hop figure unafraid to share his thoughts on someone elseโs lifestyle โ however unpopular they may be. In one of his least popular outbursts, he received a lot of criticism from Black Twitter in 2023 for calling out Dwyane Wade for supporting his daughter Zaya, after she came out as a transgender girl.

This time, itโs Boosieโs own daughter is the one whoโs being critical.
In a lengthy video posted on Instagram over the weekend, Poison Ivi, born Iviona Hatch, opened up about her anger towards her father and how sheโs tired of him constantly making negative comments about her lifestyle as a lesbian woman.

She explained that her fatherโs recent interview with Yung Miami on the โCaresha, Pleaseโ podcast prompted her to say something since he accused her of โcontaminatingโ his other children.
โShe still canโt bring her situation to our house,โ Boosie said in the interview. โMy daughter is grownโ because I donโt want it to contaminate her others [siblings]. Itโs a generation weโre raising, and I donโt want her to get too contaminated for her other six or seven sisters who look up to her. I want them to bring me grandchildren...โ
Ivi touches on several points in her video, getting visibly emotional when talking about her dadโs bigotry.ย
โI never said you was a bad father, because you not,โ she said. โYou gonโ make sure yo kids straight. You always gonโ do that. But emotionally? Mentally? You suck. And I know you suck with that because you rather go to the internet and have a conversation with the internet about your kids, before you come to us. He done did bout six, seven interviews bout me being gay.โ

Marlon Wayans โ whose oldest child, Kai, is transgender โ noticed the criticism the โWipe Me Downโ rapper was receiving following Iviโs video and defended him on X, writing, โU canโt paint @BOOSIEOFFICIAL as a monster. That man is father that provides. I believe him, his daughter and God will figure this out. It took me. A second. Give their family grace and time. This is growing pain. She know her daddy loves her. Thatโs all that matters. He may comeโฆโ
