‘New laws is slavory,’ he said in the tweet. ‘To force a rape victim to keep a child is SLAVORY IM NOT PROUD TO SAY IM FROM AMERICA!!!’
Rapper Offset engaged in a petty spat with Republican teen influencer CJ Pearson over the weekend
The Clout rapper took to his Twitter on Saturday to blast the various abortion laws that have sprung in Georgia, Alabama and Missouri.
While the spelling mistake – for slavery – was poked at by many on social media, social media commentator CJ Pearson decided to use the opportunity to troll the rapper.
‘Offset – in between cheating on your wife @iamcardib – I hope you take the time to pick up a dictionary,’ said the teenager in a Saturday afternoon tweet. ‘It’s slavery, not “slavory”. And if you’re not proud to be an American: leave.’
Ofset, 27, whose real name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus, then responded on Sunday and said: ‘And in between ur time you should look at yourself in the mirror and ask your self why you as a black men support republicans and trump people who give a f** about abortions more then black men gettin kill and targeted by police .B L E S S U P B R O T H E R.’

The 27-year-old rapper responded and called out Pearson’s support of Republicans
CJ responded with the common Republican talking point of late, that black unemployment is at its lowest in U.S. history under President Donald Trump.
‘Middle class blacks, under this President, are thriving,’ he added. ‘Why should rappers like yourself and ball players have the only chance at acquiring wealth within our community?’
‘Offset – you must not be familiar with the history of the Democratic Party? It was the Democrats that enslaved us. It was the Democrats that segregated us. It was the Republicans that freed us. I’m sorry, but I refuse to support the party that put us in chains.’

He continued: ‘I am proud to be a conservative. I am proud to support @realDonaldTrump. I am proud to defend the lives of the unborn. This is MY truth and I will never be ashamed to live in it.’
The black unemployment fact is a misleading talking point that Republicans have used, failing to acknowledge that black unemployment has been on a steady decline since 2011 – when Obama was president.
Pearson also got in a little tiff with producer Mike WiLL Made-It, who came to Offset’s defense and poked fun at the trolling
Black unemployment was at roughly 6.5 percent but was still at double the rate of white unemployment.
It also doesn’t address that black workers still earn roughly $12,000 less annually than white workers in 2018, as seen in Bureau of Labor Statistics report.
The high school junior’s point about the Democratic Party only really applies during the time of the Civil War and Reconstruction as the party shift occurred in the early 1900s into the mid 1960s.
By the late 1960s, President Lyndon Johnson – a Democrat – was signing the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act.
Pearson also got in a little tiff with producer Mike WiLL Made-It, who came to Offset’s defense and poked fun at the trolling.
‘U just made a song bout brothers like him on the net… The man tried to hop in like a Tom while u speak on a bigger subject,’ the producer said, comparing Pearson to an Uncle Tom. ‘Let Carlton have his moment u got the right to feel how u feel bout the janky laws they pushing thru.’

The highschooler retorted: ‘Mike – get back in the studio and off Twitter. Mike Will Made It? When was the last time Mike Will Made A…hit?’
But the producer has been booked and busy, and jokingly added: ‘I think it might of been Humble or something , idk , or King’s Dead those the last 2 to win grammy’s… i don’t even know what a hit is anymore I dnt make hits Man, U didn’t get the memo? U late late. my focus is buying real estate and antique cars… & trolling on twitter.’
CJ would take back to his own Twitter and claimed that he had received ‘countless death threats, racial slurs and messages from those wishing rape upon my mother.’
He also stated: ‘I will not allow the color of my skin to dictate my political beliefs, as they have. I will NOT be a slave to the Democrat Party.’
