Waka Flocka Flame: Anti-Bullying Activist

On the latest edition of E’s The Soup, Joel McHale introduced a new segment called ‘Scott Disick: Unlikely Voice of Reason.’ Disick, normally a drunken, angry, sleazeball – helpfully pointed out, to a crying Kim Kardashian, that Kris Humphries moving in with her wasn’t a dramatic issue. ‘You do realize, you’re married,‘ remarked Disick. Apparently, Kim didn’t, and they were divorced soon after.

Enter ‘Waka Flocka Flame: Unlikely Voice of Reason.’

A short while ago, Waka, SEA Brand Clothing, and Complex Magazine launched the Brick Squad Monopoly snapback event. Waka let his Facebook fans decide what he should feel passionate about, and they responded that he should support anti-bullying.

Waka’s plan is to sell snapback hats, where 25% of the proceeds will go to Pacer’s National Bullying Prevention Center. Waka’s fans have chosen a good cause for him … as unlikely a spokesperson for bullying, as he may be. Rap is a trade that lends itself pretty heavily to verbal disparagement.

It’s kinda like the Amish standing up against facial hair. But, for what it’s worth, I’m proud of Waka Flocka. He may have released the hit song “No Hands,” but he’s lending both to help communities.

Keep it hard in the mofo’in paint, Waka.
