WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Black Lives Matter has responded to Lil Yachty calling the organization a “scam” in a recent interview. “BLM is a scam. BLM was literally a scam. They had bought mansions,” Yachty said on Feeding Starving Celebrities. “You probably wouldn’t know anything about it because you don’t care about Black people, and don’t follow Black news,” he continued. Lil Yachty says Black Lives Matter was a SCAM during a cooking show with Quenlin Blackwell: “BLM is a scam… BLM was literally a scam. They had bought mansions.” pic.twitter.com/stHoVReAhh — Daily Loud (@DailyLoud) March 12, 2025 BLM faced backlash in 2022 after New York Magazine reported on the organization purchasing a nearly $6 million property in cash in October 2020 with money donated to BLMGNF (Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation).” The organization apologized for the purchase and promised to be more transparent when it comes to their spending. “Black 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. BLM was never a scam; selling out your people for clout is,” a statement issued to Fox News reads.
