Lakeyah Fires Back After TikToker Says She Doesn’t “Amount to Anything” in Female Rap (Video)

Things got real on Instagram Live when rapper Lakeyah went head-to-head with a TikToker who claimed she “doesn’t amount to anything” in the female rap space. The rising rap star didn’t hold back in responding to the shade, and the conversation quickly escalated, with both sides throwing verbal punches.

Video of the exchange: 

The back-and-forth started when the TikToker called out Lakeyah’s lack of presence in the rap industry, criticizing her for not making waves compared to other female rappers. Lakeyah, clearly offended, took to IG Live to address the situation, and things got intense.

The tension reached a boiling point when the TikToker clarified that they didn’t mean Lakeyah’s entire existence didn’t amount to anything, just her impact in the female rap scene.

Lakeyah made it clear she wasn’t here for the disrespect, especially coming from someone she believes has no place critiquing her grind. The TikToker’s comments about Lakeyah’s music career not making an impact clearly struck a nerve, but Lakeyah remained unapologetically bold in her response.

The rising star may have felt targeted, but her fiery rebuttal showed that she isn’t backing down from anyone trying to downplay her place in the rap game. With her career still gaining traction and fans rallying behind her, it’s clear that Lakeyah won’t let the criticism shake her confidence.
