Grammy-winning rapper T.I. has the White House’s full attention. The King of the South has raised eyebrows and sparked tensions after taking direct aim at President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump in a new video promo.

White House Director of Communications for the First Lady Stephanie Grisham has called for a boycott of Tip’s music.

Grisham has since explained her issues with Tip using a Melania lookalike stripper in a new video.

Stephanie Grisham has elaborated on her initial tweet by releasing a statement, saying, “Like it or not, she is the First Lady and this is the White House. It’s disrespectful and disgusting to portray her this way simply because of politics.” She continued, “These kinds of vulgar attacks only further the divisiveness and bias in our country – it needs to stop.” (TMZ)

In the video, T.I. went the extra mile with a direct reference to the First Lady.

The woman is wearing a jacket that reads “I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?” Trump wore a jacket with that wording on her way to visit migrant children in Texas. She said recently in an interview with ABC News that she wore the jacket to troll reporters. (WSB-TV)

Last week, T.I. exploded on former pal Kanye West for doing the most in a televised visit with Trump at the White House.

  1. WOW!!! The entire time the Obama’s were in office they were called and pictures of monkeys, apes, gorillas. Mrs. Obama was called a man and all sorts of things. Which was so very wrong. BUT NOW!!!! OMG!!!!STOP THE F ING PRESS!!! HOW DARE YOU!!!!!! I am going out right now to buy several of Mr. TI’s music CD’s. 🙂

  2. What is the problem the President is always calling someone out of their name and doing something crazy. Freedom of expressions. Did she not Model, did she not pose nude, so what is the problem. He showed someone who had a likeness, you take it from there. The President is a A Hole and he lies all the time. You guys are so afraid of this bully that you too have been drinking the juice and follow suit. He is not our President. He does not know how to act with class and just a user. He is about himself and no other.

  3. People trying yo justify this mess like if Toby Keith or Garth Brooks made a video insinuating they were hittin Michelle Obama black folks wouldn’t set the world on fire. He was out of line..
