Actor Marlon Wayans fired back at rapper Soulja Boy for coming after his transgender son in an ongoing feud.
The beef between them originated with Wayans calling out the rapper for performing at the Crypto Ball in Washington, D.C., as part of Republican President Donald Trump’s inauguration festivities.
Things boiled over when Soulja mocked Wayans portrayal of an FBI character going undercover as a white woman in the 2004 comedy film White Chicks.
In a series of tweets, Soulja wrote on X (formerly Twitter):
“I can’t believe I’m arguing with a [n-word] that dressed up like a white b*tch- wtf is wrong with me."
The "Turn My Swag On" rapper then targeted Wayan's 24-year-old trans son, Kai, writing:
“a t—– that suck d—."
Soulja then took a swipe at Wayans by sharing articles of the actor being praised by the LGBTQ+ community for expressing unconditional love and support for Kai.
Soulja commented:
“That f**got sh*t run in the family huh? @MarlonWayans no wonder u like dressing up as a b*tch it’s in your blood.”
Wayans then shaded Soulja's career status with a mic-dropping response, writing:
“If @souljaboy had a career he could get canceled for this type of slander."
"Luckily he ain’t been relevant since 2007."

Wayans stuck it to Soulja with a follow-up post of a photo of the bare-chested rapper with the caption:
“Hey @souljaboy My child had top surgery and still has more chest than you.”
Social media users were here for Wayans' epic clapback.
People admired Wayans for his unwavering support of his son.
Wayans has long been vocal about his support for Kai, his oldest son, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend Angela Zackery.
He's also not afraid of shaming other parents who don't show up for their trans children—like Elon Musk.
The tech billionaire has an estranged trans daughter named Vivian Jenna Wilson who legally changed her name in 2022 when she turned 18.
In July 2024, Musk went on a transphobic rant in a Daily Wire interview on The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast.
During the interview, the Tesla CEO and would-be head of DOGE for Trump's second White House term, deadnamed Wilson and declared his trans child was "dead" to him, claimed he was "tricked" into giving her gender-affirming care, and that she was "killed by the woke mind virus."
Following Musk's toxic ramblings, Wayans commented on the Club Shay Shay podcast:
“I have a Tesla that I’m about to drive over a cliff."
Wayans continued:
"I don’t like what Elon Musk be saying about his trans child. It makes me mad."
"You don’t treat those babies like that. You don’t disown your baby."
"Love your child! ... I’m sad to say some parents, some family members, and some people it’ll take them a lifetime."
"They’ll never get to that magical place that I’m at which is just acceptance. Still my child. That’s my baby," he added.
