In a recent viral clip, rapper Kevin Gates sparked debate by calling out what he sees as hypocrisy in the Black community’s response to violence. He pointed out that many protest when a white person kills a Black person, but remain silent when the violence is Black-on-Black.
“When a white man kills a Black man, it’s outrage. But when a Black man kills a Black man, it’s just Tuesday,” Gates said.

His comments have drawn both praise and criticism—some applaud his honesty, while others argue he oversimplifies complex issues. Either way, Gates has reignited an important conversation about accountability and justice.
