Blueface has voiced his disagreement with Rubi Rose‘s view of men pursuing women in relationships, and offered his own perspective, with the help of the Bible.
The situation began on Saturday (May 13) when Rubi Rose offered her theory on how dating should work, noting that men are responsible for making the first move.
“I feel like the man is supposed to pursue the woman… ion text/call guys first ever. Unless it’s my man and we locked in. Am I childish or that’s how it’s supposed to be?” she wrote.
It quickly caught the attention of Twitter users, and spread like wildfire. It wasn’t until Blueface joined the conversation that things got interesting.
Rose is ill informed, according to the LA native, likely because she has “never seen a Bible.”
"That’s because she never seen a Bible lord bless her heart,” the “Thotiana” rapper commented on a screenshot post of Rubi’s tweet.
Taking it a step further, he suggested in a separate tweet that “men should never chase women.”
Blueface’s thoughts on relationships are interesting to say the least, especially given his on-again-off-again (and often tumultuous) relationship with Chrisean Rock, the future mother of his child.
Since coming together in 2020, the pair’s relationship has been rocky. Upon Chrisean’s announcement that she was pregnant, Blueface vehemently denied the child was his and said she was “unfit to parent” — he even suggested she get an abortion.
As recently as last week, the rapper once again expressed doubts over Rock’s parenting abilities after he arrived home at a blaring smoke alarm and what appeared to be charred materials from an attempted fire started by her.
“What is wrong with you?” the rapper said as he pointed the camera toward Chrisean, who appeared to be casually strolling about. “This is what you gon’ do with a newborn baby on the way — set the house on fire? This bitch is dumb.”
Blueface even referred to her as a child, explaining that if “you leave a child too long by herself,” doors break and things around the house are charred up.

Dame Dash has revisited the dispute that fractured his and JAY-Z‘s once-successful business relationship.
In an interview with The Art of Dialogue, the Harlem rap mogul explained how he walked away from Roc-A-Fella Records after Hov began working closely with R. Kelly, who infamously married Dash’s ex-girlfriend Aaliyah when she was just 15.
“The fact that Jay was fucking with him is what used to blow my mind more than anything. I don’t know why he wanted to fuck with this guy so much. Like why? I’ve never understood it,” he said.
Dame then revealed that he confronted JAY-Z about his grievance: “Everybody knew R. Kelly married Aaliyah at 15. Everybody knew that. So was the conversation had like, ‘Yo, how you gonna go and do something with this dude?’ Hell yeah that conversation was had!
“You think I’m soft? Pause. I was like, ‘Yo, how you gonna do a project with a n-gga that raped my muthafucking girl?’ We had the conversation. Would you still fuck with a n-gga that fucked with someone that raped your girl? So why would anyone expect me to?”
He added: “There’s a lot of other shit but that alone was the nail in the coffin for me. I was outta there, I was gone. I knew that shit was gonna blow up. I wanted no parts of that shit. So I was done with him for that.”
Asked how Jay responded, Dame said: “You know how he is. He was like, ‘Yo, I ain’t have nothing to do with that.’ What I would love is for someone to ask him, ‘Why would you still do a project with that man knowing that he raped Aaliyah?’
“That right there was bridge burned […] I left Roc-A-Fella. It wasn’t that I got kicked out of Roc-A-Fella; I left Roc-A-Fella. I was done. I said, ‘Fuck all the money, fuck all this shit, I’m out.’ I was left no choice.”
The 53-year-old also claimed that JAY-Z himself was “in love” with Aaliyah and said he found it “even more disrespectful” that the rapper began working with R. Kelly on The Best of Both Worlds shortly after her death in 2001.
Dame Dash and JAY-Z’s tumultuous relationship has been back in the spotlight of late thanks to the sale of the former’s shares in Roc-A-Fella, Inc.
After a much-publicized back-and-forth, Dash’s one-third ownership stake in the company (which owns the rights to Jay’s Reasonable Doubt and is separate to Roc-A-Fella, LLC, which houses the rest of the label’s catalog) was ultimately sold for just $1 million at auction.
The auction was held to help satisfy the record executive’s extensive debts, which include $8.7 million in back taxes, an $800,000 lawsuit settlement to filmmaker Josh Webber and $145,000 in unpaid child support.
The shares were purchased by the state of New York, who are expected to flip them for a higher sum to pay off Dash’s sizeable tax debt.
Following the auction, Dame wasted little time in swiping his former business partner, saying on his America Nu Network platform: “What this really taught me was that, in the world, homie isn’t as big as he portrays.
“I thought more people would be interested in buying it […] I thought people would at least show up. No one even showed up! […] Jay didn’t even make a bid. He didn’t think it was worth $3 million. A billionaire, supposedly.”
