Metro Boomin in Hot Water: 'Metro Groomin' Moniker Emerges Amid Disturbing Tweets Uncovered

Metro Boomin, whose real name is Leland Tyler Wayne, is facing scrutiny as some of his past tweets resurface.

The hashtag "MetroGroomin" began gaining traction on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday evening as vigilant internet users uncovered and circulated the rapper's controversial posts from years prior.

Among the compilation of tweets, Metro Boomin can be seen expressing sentiments like, "She may be young but she ready."

Another tweet also surfaced that said, "I'm tryna tell [one of my friends] that age ain't nothing but a number."

From 2011 to 2014, the producer posted a significant number of tweets when he was in his late teens to early twenties. Among these tweets are references to allegedly drugging girls with Molly through song lyrics, along with a series of posts from 2010 outlining a set of 10 rules.

In another social media post, Metro lamented, "That's that r Kelly trapped in the closet s---," upon encountering a picture of a close female companion with a young child.

Another post said, "walking through the grocery store with both hands in my pockets like a true pedophile."

Metro Boomin, hailing from St. Louis, Missouri, solidified his position as a highly influential hip-hop producer in recent years.

The 30-year-old's production credits include some of the biggest hits in the genre, including Drake and Future's "Jumpman," Migos' "Bad and Boujee," Post Malone's "Congratulations," Future's "Mask Off," and many others.

Meanwhile, Metro Boomin seems to be reveling in the conflic between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. Drake finds himself in a challenging situation. He endured a barrage of disses from Kendrick Lamar over the weekend through multiple tracks.

Although Drake countered with "The Heart Part 6," the prevailing view is that he's falling behind in the battle, if not already lost. Adding insult to injury, Metro Boomin seems to be reveling in the conflict.

He initially ignited the feud by inviting Lamar to collaborate on "Like That." According to Hot New Hip Hop, he's now adopting a tactic straight from Drake's playbook, trolling the Canadian rapper on social media and even employing Drake's own lyrics against him.
