Back in 2013 Rick Ross was under fire for his “U.O.E.N.O.” lyrics, “Put molly all in her champagne/ She ain’t even know it / I took her home and I enjoyed that/ She ain’t even know it.” He repeatedly tried to apologize stating the lyrics were misunderstood. He lost his Reebok endorsement due to the lyrics.
Fast foward to today and Rich Homie is under for the same thing. On a recently-leaked track “I Made It,” Rich Homie Quan is accused of glorifying rape.
“Don’t want your ho, just want that cookie from her/ She tried to resist so I took it from her/ How you gonna tell me no/ You must not know who I am/”
This song was actually leaked back in December, bu it resurfaced online today& the internet collectively realized exactly what Rich Homie was saying. Rich Homie has since released an apology.
Here’s the statement that Rich Homie Quan gave Billboard:
“I Made It” was never intended to be released. The song was not lyrically what I wanted to say and was not completed. Without my knowledge, there was a studio leak of the recording. I apologize that it’s out; and I have asked my lawyer to pursue a cease and desist on the song immediately. To be clear, I would never condone rape.
