It seems that American Airlines is struggling with its relationship with Rapper Teen …thanks to a recent unfortunate encounter.
In a now expired Instagram Live session on TuesdayThe popular New Orleans rapper was informed by two flight attendants that he would have to give up his first class seat on a flight to Fort Worth, Texas, for a performance on his “Back That Azz Up 25th Anniversary Tour”When his wife asked why his seat had been downgraded and hers had not, the flight attendants explained that they had only relied on what was shown to them internally on their site.
“Man, they want to throw me out of the plane!” said an incredulous Juvie in a screenshot from AllHipHop. Because the staff persisted, he and his wife finally decided to leave the plane.
“Nothing like this has ever happened to me in my life. Man, you guys are freaking out. I’m a celebrity,” he said. “I’m telling you, there will be consequences. There will be consequences because I’m getting off the plane. I’m getting off the plane. I’m not going to let you disrespect me like that. I’m not going to let you single me out of all the people on the plane and disrespect me. So I’m getting off the plane.”
In a follow-up video posted on his official InstagramThe “Slow Motion” rapper subsequently expressed his displeasure with the airline, but assured his fans in Texas that he would still perform because he would board another plane and fly there.
“We’re talking about first class. First class? I think I know a thing or two about first class,” the “Back That Azz Up” rapper said while scrolling through alleged past first class bookings on American Airlines. “Fuck American Airlines, all the money I spent on you bitches… they wanna put me in economy, you motherfuckers? I’ve never flown economy. Fuck y’all, I feel like I’m being screwed.”
