They are misinformed, unoriginal, and crafted to please the same people who profit from Black suffering,\u201d the organization\u2019s statement read.<\/p>\n<p>The foundation further defended its record by emphasizing the impact of its advocacy efforts, adding, \u201cThe real scam isn\u2019t Black Lives Matter. It is watching Black artists with massive platforms recycle the same tired attacks on Black movements while ignoring the actual systems killing us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting its ongoing initiatives, the organization continued: \u201cBlack Lives Matter has supported Black families who have lost loved ones to police violence. We have built programs, funded mutual aid, and fought in courtrooms and on the streets to protect our people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yachty, however, isn\u2019t the only Hip-Hop figure to question the organization\u2019s credibility publicly.
