*T.I. believes controversial conservative Candace Owens is a lost cause, due to her never-ending criticism of Black culture for the amusement for her lily white audience.
Her anti-Black/pro-Trump rhetoric is so outrageous at times, that Black Twitter has dubbed her “White Supremacy’s concubine.”
During T.I.’s appearance on Nick Cannon’s Power 106 radio show, he dished about cancel culture and how Black folks need to get on code and come together during the ongoing fight over injustice, rather than cancel each other over disagreements.
“We don’t all have the same views. We don’t all have the same opinions of how to move forward on what’s gonna get us to our goal. But we all have the same fight. We’re all on the same journey,” Tip said (around 16:20 of the clip above), per Complex. “We can’t afford to necessarily lose people. We don’t got those kinds of numbers … We need a rehabilitative approach.”

T.I. said it’s vital for the culture to engage in dialogue about issues facing the community.
“We can have an intelligent discussion. You can either change my mind. I can change your mind. But we still moved forward,” he continued. “I don’t think dropping each other off is the answer all the time.”
He then noted the “severe cases” in which someone needs to be canceled.
“Candace Owens. She got to go. She can’t come,” he said.
“I think she a paid plant. I think someone paid her to come out here and speak against everything the majority of us are standing for,” T.I. added. “… So white people are always right? You telling me law enforcement is always right? You telling me the United States of America has always been right when it comes to dealing with us? And that’s her story. And you can’t trust that story because we have facts that tell us otherwise … She seems to have forgotten that she’s black. She has turned in her black card and crossed over.”
During the 2019 REVOLT TV summit in Atlanta, the rapper called Owens “dangerous” and claimed she was “being used for propaganda.”
Elsewhere in his chat with Nick Cannon, T.I. addressed Terry Crews’ tweet about “black supremacy.”
“What he’s doing is, he’s speaking against the community—well, not against. He’s trying to instruct the community to not be so harsh as it pertains to dealing with white supremacy,” T.I. said. “… We can’t have black supremacy because we don’t have the tools to suppress.” he said.
