    “It’s not that I fight females. It’s not that I hate women. I grew up, a lot of my life, I used to get bullied by women a lot.”

    He asserted that it was her mother who told him to retaliate against his bullies: 

    “My mama told me some s*** when I came in the house with a bunch of scratches and marks and s***… My mama used to say, ‘Them h**s not your friend. They beating on you. And if you let anybody put their hands on you one more time, your a** not coming back in this house. And the next them girls put their hands on you, so you drag their a** all the way up and down the street.’” 

    Whyte added: 

    “From that day she started a monster, I don’t let anybody put their hands on me. Boy, girl, dog, cat, wolf, mouse, if you’re gonna put your hands on me I’m gonna hit your a**.” 

    The influencer had also spoken about the alleged domestic abuse multiple times, different reports suggested. Former City Girls alum, JT, also expressed her condolences via Instagram Stories and voiced her opinion on people not taking Girlalala’s allegations seriously. The Florida rapper wrote

    “Stop laughing at domestic content! sometime we stroll & ki about very serious things because the person who’s telling the story deliver it funny but NOTHING is funny about a domestic violence story.”

    JT added: 

    “I would say the world don’t tale it serious when it’s from LGBT but TBH I see Black cis women telling their story for laughs too and we tune in like it’s a reality show… ITS NOT! It’s someone life & last night was an example of s*** just don’t be funny!”

    The rapper concluded: 

    “My heart is broken & these kids or adults may never be protected in a time where everything is moving fast & used as content!”
