Rapper Boosie Badazz is calling out retired NBA star Dwyane Wade over his 12-year-old transgender daughter Zaya.
Wade sat down with Robin Roberts for an interview that aired Tuesday on Good Morning America in which he discussed how Zaya, who was born a male named Zion, had come to the decision to identify as female.

But Wade’s comments are not sitting well with Boosie, who took to Instagram to share his thoughts in a profanity-filled rant.
“I gotta say something about this sh-t. Dwyane Wade, you’ve gone too f–king far, bro. That is a male. A 12-year-old. At 12, they don’t even know what they next meal gonna be. They don’t have shit figured out yet. He might meet a woman at 16 and fall in love with her, but his d-ck be gone,” the rapper said in the video.
Boosie dropped much more profanity directed at Wade… but you get the picture.
During his GMA interview, Wade told Roberts, “Zaya started doing more research. She was the one that sat down with us as a family and said, ‘Hey I don’t think I’m gay.’ And she went down the list and said this is how I identify myself — I identify myself as a young lady. I think I’m a straight trans, because I like boys.”
“It was a process for us to sit down with our daughter and find out who she is and what she likes and not put something on her — we decided to listen to her and she’s leading us on this journey,” he added.
Wade, who is married to actress Gabrielle Union, will share the journey of Zaya’s gender identity in a new documentary titled D. Wade: Life Unexpected premiering Sunday, February 23, at 9 p.m ET on ESPN.
