Rapper Sexyy Red has apologised and said she didn't mean to disrespect Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy. The civil rights activist's annual holiday was celebrated on Monday, and the "SkeeYee" rapper, 26, marked the occasion by taking to X and posting an AI-generated photo of herself and Dr. King holding hands as they looked into each other's eyes. Dr. King's youngest child, daughter Bernice, then called out Sexyy Red for sharing the image.

The team deliberated on whether Bernice King was justified in taking exception to the post.
