Warning: This article contains discussion of discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community which some readers may find distressing.

Scary Movie star Marlon Wayans has hit back at Soulja Boy after the rapper attacked his son using a homophobic slur.

Wayans has already spoken out against Elon Musk after the Tesla CEO said his child was 'dead' to him after he transitioned.

And now the actor's taken to social media to respond to Soulja Boy - real name DeAndre Cortez Way - after the rapper took to his keyboard to attack Wayans and his transgender son.

Soulja Boy took to Twitter responding to two articles about Wayans supporting his transgender son - Wayans sharing two sons Kai and Shawn with ex Angela Zackery and the actor revealing on The Breakfast Club his eldest son Kai is transgender and uses he/ they pronouns.

Soulja Boy wrote: "That f****t s**t run in the family huh? @MarlonWayans no wonder u like dressing up as a b***h it's in ur blood."

And it didn't take long for Wayans to take to Twitter himself yesterday to respond.

Sharing a screenshot of the above before writing: "If @souljaboy

had a career he could get cancelled for this type of slander. Luckily he ain’t been relevant since 2007."

*Mic drop*

And apparently the AI assistant bot - developed by Musk's company xAI and launched in 2023 - Grok agrees with the sentiment too.

Wayans came right back at the rapper

A button is located under the post reading: "When was Soulja Boy last relevant?"

The answer according to Grok? "Soulja Boy was last relevant in 2007 when he achieved his first number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with 'Crank That (Soulja Boy)'."

Touche.

Alas, rather than just leaving his response at that and walking away with his head held high, Wayans got a bit keyboard happy.

He tweeted: "Hey @souljaboy. My child had top surgery and still has more chest than you."

Wayans then shared a TMZ video captioned: "Exclusive. Marlon Wayans Soulja Boy beef's inspiring new 'Scary Movie' role... Need a 'Creth-Head'!!!"

He added: "Say less… back to writing another classic SCARY 6 SUMMER 2026. And @souljaboy you can go back to… hmmm??? Irrelevancy?"

Add in another image shared by Wayans allegedly of a 'before and after' of Soulja Boy's teeth and various other comments and well, Wayans certainly hasn't been holding back.
