Kanye is back on Instagram calling a few people out including the mother of George Floyd’s Daughter, Roxie Washington.
According to Radaronline Ye wrote: “Now for Roxie Washington and Roxie Washington ALONE. I gave 2 million dollars out of my pocket for the family. To help George’s daughter…Your daughter!” he wrote on Sunday, October 30. “I can guarantee that most of those that came for me after my comments didn’t do what I did! Even those with millions of dollars in the bank! How much did BLM give????”
He said that many only gave “words” but he “acted” by giving the grieving family money, before calling her out for suing him when he’s going through an “economic” and “digital lynching.”
“You’re either being controlled or you’re being greedy…But You better get you some business…” he continued. “This is how you try someone who was there for your family???? You will never get money from no one else. GOD don’t like ugly…”
West then personally addressed the Floyd family, telling them to “come get Roxie before she mess up all y’all money,” adding, “the Bible is the umbilical chord [sic]…Stay Connected.”

This comes shortly after Ye issued an apology for his inflammatory comments about Floyd’s death while speaking with paparazzi on Friday, October 28.
“When I questioned the death of George Floyd, it hurt my people. I want to apologize,” he admitted, before going on to compare his own current financial and social struggles with the way the 46-year-old died. “Because God has showed me by what Adidas is doing, by what the media is doing, I know how it feels to have a knee on my neck now.”
“So thank you God for humbling me and letting me know how it really felt,” he continued. “Because how could the richest Black men ever be humbled other than to be made to not be a billionaire in front of everyone off of one comment.”
Rolling Stone reported West’s apology.
Stephen Jackson responded to West’s posts, making it clear that what the family does and what Roxie does are two different things and that both Roxie and Giana were minding their business when Ye said what her said.

I’m Jewish, and I don’t want an apology from Kanye West that George Floyd’s family, Black people and women didn’t get.

With all due respect #KanyeWest can absolutely F*CK off!
I’m delighted white people have reduce him to a joke after they uniquely waited for him to be antisemitic— while he was being antiblack – they found him funny and praise worthy!
His apology to Black people is NOT genuine https://t.co/IUFQOXY4Lv

1. It’s NOT up to us to accept Kanye West’s “apology”, that’s for George Floyd’s family to do, if they want.
2. The timing is terrible, you waited until you lost deals & his family took legal action.
3. I’m Kanye’d out. ✌? pic.twitter.com/Awu0oN0fkH
