With businesses struggling to stay afloat and families finding it difficult to keep a roof over their head and food on the table, not to mention the 2.4 million people around the world who have died from the virus, his tweets weren’t well-received, so the Memphis rapper was quick to apologize. 

Moneybagg Yo proved earlier this month that he’s well aware of what people are saying about him on social media with his song “Time Today,” and the video that accompanied it. Whether it’s rumors that he has undergone cosmetic surgery or his resemblance to the character William Dent from the series Girlfriends, the rapper showed he isn’t shy about confronting what is being said about him, good or bad.
