Amid discussions about her performance, the rapper took to Twitter on Sunday (April 21) with a special message about her evolution and the expectations of her fans.
“I feel like some of my fans, in [their minds], won’t allow me to get older and grow. They are attached to baby Coi with the braids, but it’s okay to grow up. It’s okay to get older,” she wrote.
Underneath her initial post, a social media user argued that she doesn’t have to change her image to signify maturation. Leray responded, “Oh no, baby, I’m getting braids this week; my hair is finally grown out. But as I GROW into a [woman], I’m learning and discovering new things about myself. New desires, new interests, new icks, new [melodies], new flows, new topics, [etc.]”
