Boosie Badazz has previously stated that he doesn't believe the sexual assault allegations against R. Kelly, Usher, Russell Simmons, and Bill Cosby. In a new video, he's doubled down on his comments, comparing the case of Harvey Weinstein against Cosby's.

"Ay check this out, y'all better wake up this racist ass motherf**kin' world," Boosie started the video. "This armadillo lookin' bitch Harvey Weinstein been f**kin' people 100 days ago, and he can pay for all the shit he did, all the fuckin' rapes he done did, but Bill Cosby couldn't pay for his shit." He dramatically paused for a moment, and then added, "That show you it's a racist motherf**kin' world."

Boosie seems agitated in the clip, in which he shouted, "Bill Cosby did that shit when he was 39." He continued, "This man did this shit a couple f**kin' days ago, and he get to pay his off. You know why? 'Cause he a white man." Not only does Boosie show ignorance towards sexual assault in the clip, but he also doesn't understand that Weinstein's time in court isn't over yet. "Free Bill Cosby."

Cosby was found guilty of three counts of aggravated indecent assault and was subsequently sentenced to three to ten years in state prison in 2018. Weinstein, meanwhile, reached a $44 million deal with his accusers and studio board members last month, although two sexual misconduct cases against him are still pending, and thus he could still face time in prison.

Throughout Cosby's career, he has been accused of rape, child sexual abuse, and sexual battery among other crimes. The allegations first started in the '60s, but were brought to light once again in 2014. In total over 60 women accused Cosby of sexual assault, with incidents spanning from 1965 through to 2008. An expose on Weinstein's alleged assaults was first reported on in October 2017, with more than a dozen women coming forward.
