Ian's Manager Disses Tyler, The Creator For Criticizing His Artist

Tyler, The Creator didn't say Ian's name, but it seemed like he criticized him during his recent interview with Maverick Carter.

That led to Ian's manager Bu Thiam responding with some pretty harsh words.

Here's what Tyler said: 

"This white kid, regular caucasian man, and he's like mocking Future and Gucci Mane like rap music. And people like, 'this sh*t hard.  It's not ever satire, it's like 'I'm just joking, I'm just mocking'.  But I'm like, no, no, no.  You can't.  And I hold rap music so close and I'm a nerd about this sh*t. This is like... weird. I'm looking at it and something about it don't sit well with me.  In comparison to someone like a Mac Miller or an Eminem.  Who it didn't seem like they was mocking it, they had a genuine love for it."

Thiam shot back on Instagram Stories and said Tyler is just an old head who doesn't want Ian to win. 

"Yo, I signed Ian and I’m from Atlanta," wrote Thiam. "He sounds nothing like Gucci or Future lol. It’s called influence. I never thought I’d see the day where you become old and hate on the youth lol."

But why is giving an opinion always associated with hate?
