Metro Boomin Clarifies Account Hack, Refutes Authorship of 'Corny Tweets'

Metro Boomin has announced that his social media accounts were hacked, disowning several "corny" tweets that were posted from his account since the release of "We Don't Trust You" in late March 2024. In a TwitterX post on April 2, Metro explained that the hack occurred on March 20, the same day the album with Future was released. He reassured fans that the out-of-character tweets did not reflect his true sentiments, emphasizing his commitment to positivity. Metro highlighted that only a few tweets were problematic, which he promptly deleted after regaining control of his account. He also shared amusing attempts by the hacker to use his Balenciaga contact to acquire Chanel products, showcasing his ability to find humor in the situation despite the frustration. The producer clarified that a specific tweet about rappers being scared to support the album was misinterpreted as a dig at 21 Savage, a close collaborator. Metro debunked these speculations, noting their recent phone conversation and criticizing the quick spread of negativity. Metro confirmed, however, that his tweet about rappers needing to pick a side over "We Don't Trust You," which stirred tensions between Drake and Rick Ross, was genuinely from him. This clarification comes amidst discussions on the album's impact and the dynamics within the hip-hop community.
