In a surprising turn of events, Mike Tyson’s son, Amir Tyson, has made headlines after publicly criticizing a social media influencer known as Hawk Tuah Girl for her incorrect rendition of Jay-Z lyrics. The incident unfolded when Hawk Tuah Girl, who has a large following on various platforms, posted a video of herself rapping along to one of Jay-Z’s iconic tracks. However, it didn’t take long for fans to notice that she had botched some of the lyrics.
Amir Tyson, a known hip-hop enthusiast and Jay-Z fan, didn’t hold back in his response. He took to social media to express his disapproval, calling out the influencer for not doing justice to the legendary rapper’s work. In a series of posts, Amir criticized her for spreading misinformation about the lyrics and urged her to respect the artistry that goes into creating such influential music.
“Jay-Z’s lyrics are more than just words—they’re a reflection of culture, history, and personal struggle,” Amir wrote. “If you’re going to share his music, at least get the lyrics right. It’s about respect.”
The incident quickly went viral, with fans taking sides in the debate. Some supported Amir’s stance, arguing that iconic artists like Jay-Z deserve accurate representation, especially from influencers with large platforms. Others felt that Amir’s reaction was too harsh, noting that mistakes happen and that the criticism could have been more constructive.
Despite the backlash, Hawk Tuah Girl responded graciously, admitting her mistake and apologizing to both Amir and her followers. She promised to be more careful in the future and even invited Amir to collaborate on a video discussing the importance of getting lyrics right in hip-hop culture.
