GETTY IMAGESWaka Flocka Flame is accused of being transphobic after saying Caitlyn Jenner is "marketing evil."
Waka Flocka Flame angered a lot of radio listeners by speaking his mind.
The Atlanta-based rapper, real name Juaquin Malphurs, addressed the hype surrounding Caitlyn Jenner during an interview with Power 105.1's "The Breakfast Club" on Friday.
Some critics of the interview claimed the rapper’s position was heavily transphobic.
The 29-year-old said Jenner, whom he referred to as Bruce, is “rebuking God” by choosing to identify as a woman.
"You know what the world is today, man? Women are afraid to be a wife and young males are afraid to be men," Flame explained to hosts Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee, and DJ Envy.
"It's like it's not cool, they're not marketing that. They don't market families and husbands and wives no more. They're marketing young girls, transgenders, they're marketing evil, man," Flame added.
