Waka Flocka Flame won't back down from his comment that Caitlyn Jenner is 'rebuking God'
Rapper Waka Flocka Flame isn't backing down from his comments on Power 101.5's The Breakfast Club on Friday, where he suggested transgender people are "marketing evil," before personally attacking Caitlyn Jenner, who transitioned earlier in 2015. He tweeted in defense of himself later Friday evening:
Here's what Flame said on the air:
"I ain't saying nothing against like a Bruce Jenner, you follow me, you are who you are when God made you, not who you became after he did," Flame said on the air. "That's how I just feel. You rebuking God. God ain't put them feelings in you, that's the devil playing tricks on your mind. That's a test from God."
