ScarLip has supplied an apology to the fans who responded negatively to a clip of her newest music video, which saw her twerking in a pair of barely-there shorts.

The increasing Bronx star came beneath fire on Thursday (June 13) right after she took to Instagram and shared a handful of behind the scenes shots from the set of the visuals for her newest single “She’s Hot.” In the scene, she can be noticed in a pair of quick shorts, as she and a group of other females recreate a car or truck wash.

Fans quickly reacted to seeing ScarLip in this light, with the original post drawing comments like, “They tryna sexualize her & it don’t fit her at all stick with the gangsta image,” and “Scar… FIGHT FOR YOU… don’t let them trick you. Your more than enough Queen.”

Later on that evening, just ahead of the song hit streaming platforms, Scar took to Instagram, exactly where she acknowledged her fans’ issues and did her most effective to reassure them that the switch up wasn’t something she had been forced to take on.

“So there’s a few things that I’d like to address with my supporters,” she begins out in the video statement. “I know a few days ago, y’all saw me shaking my booty on the internet. I wanna say I apologize to all of y’all and anybody I offended. I did not mean to. Now, I know everybody’s like, ‘No, we don’t want you doing that’ and da da da. I understand that, right? Like, I’m not just out here just wild’n. Lemme tell y’all one thing: no one’s forcing me to do anything. I promise that.

“I come up with these things in my head, these crazy ideas. I want you guys to grow with me. Don’t put me in a box. I’m always gonna give y’all that street shit. I mean, I’m the best to do it, right? We all know that! So, like, don’t worry about that, Imma always give y’all what’s needed. Imma always feed the streets, the streets is hungry. But I wanna tap into what’s in me and let it out! There’s something in me that just wants to come out.”

ScarLip concludes: “Shout out to my label. I wanna say I appreciate Swizz Beatz and my label for allowing me to explore as an artist. Like, having creative freedom to just do what I want creatively. And guys, ‘She’s Hot’ that’s about to drop tonight at midnight, really is just a feel good summer vibe. I was just like, ‘I wanna feel good this summer, lemme put some summer music out.’ It is not crazy, it is still street. I hope you guys enjoy it.”

Once the video became accessible on Friday (June 14), the newcomer returned to Instagram, this time, sharing a snippet of the completed music video. Yet, in spite of ScarLip’s statement, the second post received a great deal of the similar sort of comments.

“I’m saddened you’ve decided to promote this stereotype,” 1 commenter wrote. “I started following you because you gave old school female rappers. Basing it on your comfortability with tired lyrical content. I hope you get back there. This makes me not even wanna listen to be honest. Good luck.”

“Nah scar this ain’t it stick to what u been doing boo,” one more follower wrote.

On this post, having said that, she wasted no time, responding to the naysayers straight in the comments, writing: “Guys, I’m literally wrapping like a man talking about putting my thumb in a girls … also, I balanced it and some scenes. I’m super hard and dominant and in one scene I’m girly [shrugging emoji, three flame emojis] let artist create freely.”

And it appears as even though not all of ScarLip’s fans have been bothered by her newest visual, with lots of voicing their assistance and jumping to her defense with comments like, “The way y’all saying ‘this is not her’ how do YOU know? [crying laughing emojis] stop thinking y’all know celebs personally anywaysss Go Scar!!”

“And you look tf GoodT!! Keep growing Scar [heart emoji] IM STICKING W YOU,” commented one more fan when a third supporter wrote: “She can be more than one thing y’all. [squinting emoji] Let baby girl LIVE!”
