“Buss It” rapper Erica Banks has Black Twitter side-eyeing her for twerking in front of a group of male football players during a high school performance on August 19 at Frederick Douglass High School in Atlanta. Banks walked up to a crowd of teenagers in a packed gymnasium during a pep rally in a clip that just surfaced. The video’s caption raised some questions, “Mind you, she is at a high school!! Why tf you twerking for children!”

If you see someone defending Erica banks twerking at a HS pep rally in front of underage children don’t let them around your kid. Y’all sick af.
What they do or see outside of school has nothing to do with an adult shaking her ass in their faces on purpose at a pep rally. ??

Anyone defending Erica Banks turning her whole body around for teenage boys to watch her twerk is weird. ???
Y’all already allow your kids to twerk and smoke. You gonna allow grown folks do whatever around your kids too? Okay. ?

A few posts attempted to defend the Texas native, saying her behavior is not all that uncommon.

In response to all the Twitter posts about her flooding in, the rapper hilariously put out a tweet of her own.
