Sexyy Red shares private DMs allegedly received from rappers and athletes to promote new single
Rapper Sexyy Red has ignited controversy online after allegedly sharing a montage of private and explicit direct messages reportedly sent to her by unnamed athletes and fellow rappers. The social media post, soundtracked by her newly released single 'Hoochie Coochie,' has stirred backlash and debate among fans.
In the now-viral video, several unidentified senders express their infatuation with the St. Louis rapper, with messages ranging from "I think about you all the time" to "Baby, I'm infatuated." The montage, meant to boost visibility for the track, was shared across multiple platforms, drawing swift reaction from the public.
The move appears to be part of a calculated campaign to promote 'Hoochie Coochie,' which dropped last Friday alongside a music video directed by DaBaby. The single is already gaining traction and being positioned by some as a contender for summer anthem status.
While she declined to name those behind the leaked messages, the rapper was previously rumoured to be dating Chief Keef. In an earlier interview, she described their bond as close and undefined, saying, 'We like each other, but we can sit on the phone, we can be around each other and act like we been knew each other all these years.'

Joe Budden calls Sexyy Red's 'Hoochie Coochie' a 'degenerate' track marketed to black audiences
Joe Budden is back in the headlines — and this time, he's setting his sights on Sexyy Red and Bruno Mars. The veteran rapper-turned-podcast host slammed the duo's recent collaboration, calling it a calculated attempt to package stereotypes for Black listeners. In a recent episode of The Joe Budden Podcast, Budden didn't mince words when discussing the song 'Fat Juicy & Wet,' a provocative track that's stirred buzz across streaming platforms. While many fans mistakenly tied Budden's critique to a rumored track called 'Hoochie Coochie,' the media personality made it clear that his issue lies in how the collaboration is being presented. 'This is force-fed, degenerate content dressed up for commercial gain,' Budden said. He criticized the track as 'whitewashed' and accused the artists of exploiting hypersexualized imagery to sell records. 'It feels more like a marketing formula than real music,' he continued, adding that Bruno Mars' involvement felt like 'a costume' rather than artistic growth. Known for his no-holds-barred takes, Budden didn't stop at the song itself. He questioned the sincerity behind the high-profile endorsements Sexyy Red has received in recent months — especially from artists like Drake. 'Are these co-signs about mentorship or money?' Budden asked, suggesting the support for Red might be more transactional than it appears. 'It blurs the line between authentic collaboration and industry promo.' Budden's remarks have sparked a heated debate online, reigniting familiar tensions around authenticity, representation, and the commercialization of Black culture. Fans and critics alike have chimed in, with some defending the artists' creative choices, while others echoed Budden's concern about the direction mainstream hip-hop is taking. Joe Budden criticizes Sexyy Red's new single 'Hoochie Coochie' and implies that female rap is currently dead without Doechii and Glorilla. 👀 'Can someone fight Doechii back please, Glo is still here I'm not talking about Glo, C'mon Ice Spice' ———-Also states that Sexyy Red… — popbrains (@popbrains) April 7, 2025 Though his views are polarizing, Budden's critique taps into a broader conversation about who gets to define the culture — and who profits from it. 'In a landscape increasingly dominated by image and metrics,' he said, 'asking hard questions about intent isn't just important — it's essential.'

Is Sexyy Red a CIA operative? Rapper trends amid viral claim and $5 million harassment lawsuit
A viral post on X (formerly Twitter) has sparked online speculation that rapper Sexyy Red is secretly a CIA operative. The post, shared by the parody account @DailyNoud on March 28, included a screenshot of what appeared to be a news article claiming the artist has operated under the codename 'Agent Bow Bow' since 2018. It also alleged that leaked documents referred to her mission as 'highly destabilizing and culturally critical.' BREAKING: Leaked government documents reveal Sexyy Red has been a CIA operative since 2018 😳 Officials describe her mission as 'culturally critical' with no further details — Daily Noud (@DailyNoud) March 28, 2025 However, there is no evidence to support the claim. The alleged documents are not publicly available, and no credible news outlet has reported on them. Given the satirical source and absence of supporting evidence, the claim is likely unfounded. While Red has remained silent on the viral post, she recently made headlines for a separate legal matter. According to a Page Six report on March 26, the rapper, whose real name is Janae Wherry, was named in a lawsuit filed by Nicole Barnes, the paternal grandmother of one of her children. Barnes alleges that Wherry posted her home address and photo on Facebook in December 2024, encouraging her followers to 'kick in the door' and carry out violent acts. As a result, Barnes claims she was forced to relocate and now seeks $5 million in damages. Her attorney told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that Barnes has been unable to find an affordable new home and is undergoing therapy for emotional distress. Amid the headlines, Red continues to focus on her music, currently filming a video for her new country-rap single Beer and Baddies with singer Caldwell. The project is being shot in Columbia, South Carolina, following the track's March 28 release.
