“This Is an Abomination”: Ryan Garcia Told to Delete “Horrible” New Song as Promo Draws Scathing Response From Fans
Ryan Garcia, known for his lightning-fast jabs inside the ring, found himself on the receiving end of swift criticism after releasing his latest music track, ‘Pray for My Haters’. The 25-year-old boxing sensation, often vocal about his passions beyond the sport, ventured into the realm of rap alongside Tajikistani singer Abdu Rozik, aiming to express his personal battles and setbacks through music.
Garcia’s foray into music isn’t new; he previously teased fans with an Instagram video featuring an unusual companion—an orangutan—during a car ride where he freestyled. However, this latest musical endeavor struck a discordant note among his fan base, drawing ire instead of applause.
The track, ‘Pray for My Haters’, sees Garcia taking lyrical swipes at fellow boxer Devin Haney, whom he clashed with in a controversial bout, and others he accuses of targeting him unjustly. Despite his intentions to resonate with fans through authenticity, the response was overwhelmingly critical. Social media platforms buzzed with disapproving comments and memes, questioning Garcia’s choice to diversify his talents beyond boxing.
The new song is named ‘Pray for My Haters’ Devin Haney, trying to frame him “because I said I love Jesus”.
One Twitter user, reflecting the sentiment of many, lamented, “Trash ah song lmfao,” encapsulating the disappointment echoed by others who felt the effort fell short of Garcia’s usual standards of excellence.
In recent times, Garcia has faced a string of personal and professional challenges, including a positive test for a banned substance, allegations of felony vandalism, and his mother’s battle with breast cancer—a series of events that have visibly impacted his emotional state. Fans observing his erratic behavior online following these tribulations expressed concern, urging him to prioritize his mental health amidst his artistic pursuits.
