T.I. has let it be known that he is not happy with Kanye West and his commentary on Harriet Tubman. The Presidential hopeful got a lot of backlash about his slavery statement once again at the campaign rally in Charleston, North Carolina, yesterday.

During the rally, Kanye mentioned to that crowd that he believes, “Harriet Tubman…never actually freed the slaves, she just had the slaves go work for other white people.” Which led to him trending on Twitter. Reportedly, his family believes quotes like that can ultimately “financially tank some of his businesses.”

Rapper T.I. took to his Instagram to respond to Kanye’s comments. He writes, “Nahhhh WE Can’t let you do that Ye’….
What WE NOT gon do is slander nor disrespect the legacy of our heroic Queen Harriet Tubman by telling falsities in an attempt to discredit the contributions she made to LIBERATE OUR PEOPLE‼️”
