Though she apologized, Yung Miami found herself embroiled in controversy once more on November 13 when she doubled down on her homophobic statements in an appearance on Power 105.1‘s radio show The Breakfast Club. During the interview, she was questioned by radio host Charlamagne tha God in regard to her controversial tweet that claimed what she would do if she found out that her son was gay. Yung Miami replied that her previous tweet had nothing to do with the LGBTQ community and was specifically about her son. She said, “I was just talking about my son. I just said that if I saw anything gay in my son, that I would beat him”. Miami insisted that she does not harbor any resentment towards gay people as she spends much time around them, including her cousin and hairstylist.
