Lupe Fiasco and Chris Webby clashed over their opinions on the COVID-19 vaccine in a heated debate this week.

The two rappers went back and forth on Twitter on Wednesday (January 11) after Lupe argued his pro-vaccine stance, ultimately declaring he would stop debating conspiracy theories with people who have less than 200,000 followers.

“I’m no longer responding to people regarding vaccines, bill gates, ‘THEY’s’, conspiracy theories or the government with people with less than 200,000 Followers,” Lupe wrote.

Chris Webby responded: “Sore loser to boot eh? And deleting your tweets after previously mocking others for deleting theirs because you, and I quote, ‘destroyed their points’ .. To imagine you used to be this guy.”

Webby included a Genius screenshot about his 2011 song “Words I Never Said” criticizing the U.S. government and challenging the status quo.

Lupe Fiasco responded to Chris Webby by asking him to have a proper conversation about the topic, to which he obliged.

“Woke up to this victory lap…we can REALLY debate my guy…IG live, Twitter spaces whatever, whenever,” he said. “you below my follower to response threshold but I’ll make an exception. Just gimme the word.”

Webby responded: “Gladly. I think we both well know I’d get booted from IG for my stances on this, so Twitter Spaces is fine. Never used it before. Let me know, I’m around for it whenever you are. I’ve never been one to turn down thought provoking dialogue.”

The pair agreed to a time and later locked horns over the vaccine on Twitter Spaces, although Webby claimed that his opinions wouldn’t be allowed to be broadcast on certain platforms.

“The why is because my stances don’t fit within the New World Order narrative and henceforth would get me removed from said platform,” he wrote. “I think dispensing of any pettiness on both sides would make for a better conversation, but play it however you’d like sir. And yea, cool.”

In December 2020, Lupe Fiasco urged fans to get the COVID-19 vaccine, stating people would need to be vaccinated to attend his shows.

“Let’s Get Get Get It!!!!” he wrote at the time. “You will be required to be vaccinated to come to my concerts.”

Days earlier, Lupe responded to those who disagreed with his stance on the vaccine.

“I waiting on y’all alternative,” he said. “I really am. Everytime I faithfully study this ‘medical black wokeness’ it ends up being a bunch of bullshit promoted by folks selling seamoss shakes and possessing the scientific depth of a bag of flamin hots. Some of us actually stayed in school.”
