Tina Knowles is taking aim at Kanye West after the rapper came after Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s children, Rumi and Sir.
West, who now goes by Ye, posted ableist remarks about the two’s twins on X this week.
“WAIT HAS ANYONE EVER SEEN JAY Z AND BEYONCES YOUNGER KIDS,” the rapper said in a now-deleted tweet before using a slur to describe the 7-year-olds. “THEYRE RETARDED NO LIKE LITERALLY.”
Knowles seemingly responded to Ye’s rant about her grandchildren and daughter with a pointed caption and video on Instagram, the caption of which she has since edited.
“Corny joke, time! it’s hard to remain positive and classy in the face of ignorance and evil,” she said, in a screenshot captured by Page Six. “But I know that no weapon formed against me or my family shall prosper.”
She added, “This battle is not mine, but the Lords [sic], I know that God has got this.”
Her current Instagram caption simply reads “Corny joke, time!” with a red heart emoji.
In her Instagram video, Knowles shared her “corny joke.”
“So I’m on the set of a photoshoot today for my book, and I wanted to tell you a corny joke,” she said in the clip. “What happens when a snowman throws a tantrum? He has a meltdown. Y’all know that’s funny.”
People were all about Knowles’ classy way of calling out hate.
“One thing about Tina is she does NOT play about her family and she’s gonna clock people everytime,” one commenter wrote.
