Flo Milli Faces Backlash for "Disrespectful" Response to Roland Martin’s Mistake

American rapper Flo Milli has sparked controversy on social media after responding to a mistake made by journalist Roland Martin. Martin, 55, mistakenly tagged Flo Milli’s official account in a tweet about the execution of Marcellus Williams in Missouri, despite prosecutors’ efforts to overturn his conviction.

In his initial post, Martin responded to a tweet from the account @FLOMILLI, which expressed outrage over the execution. Martin’s tweet included a series of questions about the Missouri State Supreme Court justices and the US Supreme Court, stating that voting has a direct impact on allowing or stopping executions.

Flo Milli, 24, responded to Martin’s tags with a jab at his age, saying "get yo old ass out my mentions fr." The reaction was met with criticism from many fans, who felt that it was inappropriate to address an elder in such a manner.

"I literally tagged the wrong person… ur not that lit to be that arrogant. that’s why your career is barely going anywhere now. get over yourself, little girl," wrote one disapproving fan. Another critic stated, "How is being old a drag? Damn please don’t ruin your image w this behavior. It was an obvious mistake."

Despite the backlash, some fans defended Flo Milli’s response, questioning how Martin could mistakenly tag her not once, but three times. "It was disrespectful for him to go in on her when it had nothing to do with her… he should’ve double checked who he was tagging," wrote one of the rapper’s defenders.

The controversy has sparked a larger conversation about respect for elders and the importance of accuracy in online communication. As one commenter on TNT’s page wrote, "Disrespecting your elders is so corny. All she had to do was say that he had the wrong person."

This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of digital etiquette and the potential consequences of our online actions.
