Boosie Badazz has been having a busy month. From appearing on Justin Laboy’s new online show #Respectfully Justin, to going viral for paying an extra to be literally slapped on-set of his new music video, it’s safe to say that Boosie doesn’t mind being in the spotlight. This time, he uploaded an Instagram video letting his followers know that a fan confused him with Flava Flav, the 62-year-old rapper and reality television star.
He wasn’t too pleased about the comparison. Starting his video with a frown, he said “I was just in the f*****g airport, and a lady gon’ talk about ‘Flavor Flav!’”

Wearing red-framed shades, heavy rings and a diamond chain, the “Wipe Me Down” rapper continued, “I don’t look like no damn Flavor Flav, I look like Boosie! That’s why I don’t wear these damn red glasses…to early in the morning for that sh**,”

He then took an opportunity to brag a bit, adding, “Flav, you can’t f*** with me, man.” before ending the rant. Followers instantly flooded his comments with laughing emojis and quotes about his “red shades” look. Flavor Flav was known for his white-framed shades and giant clock chain, and as some fans pointed out, the comparisons are there.
One Twitter person joked online that the resemblance doesn’t just end with the shades.
