2 Chainz was among the celebs who felt compelled to give back ahead of Thanksgiving.
However, after hosting his annual food drive with his family and Esco restaurant staff, the rapper took to social media detailing his disappointment with his so-called friends who will ask him for favors, but skipped out on helping with the turkey giveaway.
“I stayed up all night and still went to give back to people in the community. People ask me for favors all the time. Ask me for money all the time, and y’all can’t even pop up to help me help other people,” said Tity Boi on Instagram Live.
The 47-year-old continued, “So now I’m working for you? I’m out here grindin’, getting my money to help you because you can’t get your hustle together. I’m helping the unfortunate, and you one of the unfortunate, but you ain’t even gonna come back? I’m just sittin’ here thinkin’, y’all gon’ have to leave me the f**k alone for a minute for real.”
He then questioned, “What else were you doing?”
2 Chainz never name-dropped anyone or gave specific details to identify who he was talking about, but his disappointment was evident.
The food drive was held at his restaurant, Esco, on Tuesday (Nov. 26). It was hosted by Tru Foundation, the nonprofit organization the rapper founded with his wife, Nakesha Ward-Epps, in 2011.
Over the years, he’s given back to the community in several ways beyond the annual food drive. He gave away backpacks and school supplies with the help of his son, Halo, and also donated a minivan to a family with the profits from his “Dabbing Santa” sweaters back in 2015.
