Lil Pump Criticizes Kamala Harris’s Race but Isn’t Black Himself
Gazzy Garcia, aka Lil Pump, is an American rapper known for his breakthrough single Gucci Gang. Recently, after criticizing Kamala Harris, he has faced significant backlash over his race, with people questioning whether he is black.
On July 29, 2024, Gucci Gang rapper Lil Pump reaffirmed his support for Donald Trump, falsely claiming the opponent, VP Kamala Harris Amala Harris, isn’t black.
He took to his Twitter to write a controversial statement which reads,
Kamala Harris isn’t even black… she’s Indian.
While some internet nerds are mirroring the 23-year-old rapper’s comments about Kamala’s race, it is a misleading and false statement.
Lil Pump’s comments have been criticized and are seen as an attempt to undermine Kamala’s identity and political position.
Gucci Gang Rapper Lil Pump Has Mexican Roots!
Gucci Gang rapper Lil Pump isn’t black. He was born in Miami, Florida, to a Cuban father and a Mexican mother, giving him a Latin American heritage.
Reportedly, his parents divorced when Lil Pump was just 6. Whereas his father, Fabio Garcia, passed away on April 8, 2022.
Besides that, little to no details surrounding his parents and lineage are readily available on the web.
The search for his ethnic roots escalated after he criticized Kamala Harris as the “worst VP in American history,” reiterating his support for Trump in the upcoming election.
These statements have sparked significant backlash, with many pointing out that Kamala is of mixed heritage. She was born to a Jamaican father and an Indian mother.
Now that he made a false claim, netizens have come forward to give Lil Pump a quick reality check that the rapper isn’t himself black.
Kamala Harris isn’t even black… she’s Indian. She locked up over 1,500 people for weed related crimes and then laughed about it years later. The worst VP in American History.
