While performing at Rolling Loud festival in Miami on July 25, 2021, the rapper made a horrible comment about people with HIV when he asked the audience to put up their cell phone light.

If you didn’t show up today with HIV, AIDS, or any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases that’ll make you die in two to three weeks, then put your cellphone lighter up.
