‘Why You Getting Mad ‘Cause The Food Is Nasty’: D.C. Rapper Keith Lee Receives Death Threats After DMV Tour Due to Bad Reviews

Keith Lee, 27, is being threatened by an area after his latest food tour caused an uproar amongst residents. The popular food critic headed to the DMV area for his latest tastings, but his negative reactions to some local establishments angered residents.

After visiting dozens of restaurants during his trip, Lee decided to delete lots of his video reviews due to poor customer support and bad recommendations. He explained, “We made the decision as a family and a team, as well as a personal decision, not to post most of them.”

The Las Vegas web personality continued, “Out of those twelve, I probably only have one or two more that I’ll post. The reason? A lot of these videos, in my opinion, are not constructive at all.”

Washington, D.C. rapper Ant Glizzy took offense to Lee’s unfavorable criticism of his hometown’s cuisine, with the “Having Fun” artist appearing to threaten the previous mixed martial arts fighter online.

“Tell Keith Lee to show him his location when he gets back I’ll review his life,” Ant Glizzy wrote on X on August 28. The post has amassed over 5 million views and over 30,000 likes on the platform.

While some X users enjoyed Ant Glizzy’s comments, other X users criticized him for attacking Lee. For example, one person Deflect a shot“Why are you mad because the food is terrible?”

Another person replied: “This might be the (most) corny sh*t I’ve seen on this app.” Someone else he tweeted“It’s crazy to crash into someone’s taste buds. Besides, he’ll probably beat the crap out of you.”

Ant Glizzy didn’t stop with a single tweet geared toward Lee over his comments in regards to the DMV restaurant. The 32-year-old “I’m just a messenger” The mixtape creator has returned to X for one more round of attacks.

He also shared a video of Lee losing to Jornel Lugo at Bellator 265 in August 2021. His caption, X, read, “KEITH LEE RATED THIS ASS A 1 OUT OF 10.”

Ant Glizzy’s tactic of bringing up the fight backfired as Keith Lee’s supporters began reposting Glizzy’s loss to the comedian on Instagram Davy Ruffin by TKO in 2023 unsanctioned boxing fight.

“Boy you knocked me out, fight like a little girl” – @DaRealSkeet X account published. Also, @CotyMMA slammed Glizzy writing“He gets choked out by a professional boxer and you get knocked out (damn) by some sucker.”

One X user asked why Glizzy mentioned Keith Lee’s MMA win-loss records in response to his DMV food tour, ask“So what does this have to do with you nasty jokers?”

Ant Glizzy talks about his boxing fight with Davy Ruffin during a 2023 interview. Say cheeseAfter initially admitting that Ruffin had defeated him within the fight, Glizzy said, “I won the fight… My plan was to go in there, get on one knee and just grab the $20,000.”

In addition, Ant Glizzy took aim at Keith Lee in an 11-minute episode YouTube video.” His theory is that Lee was still upset over the fallout with fellow Washington resident Taraji P. Henson and was taking his hostility out on the town.

While hosting the 2024 BET Awards in June, Henson mistakenly called social media influencer Jordan Howlett Keith Lee. The mix-up led to Lee posting, then deleting, a TikTok video trolling the actress’s mistake. In response, Henson suggested Lee’s ego had been bruised, though he blamed BET’s production for the gaffe.

“He doesn’t like her and he wants revenge because she hurt his feelings in some way,” Glizzy says of Lee and Henson. “So I think when he goes back to D.C. for his food tour, he’s going to get revenge on her for what happened.”

Ant Glizzy’s online digs at Keith Lee weren’t the one controversy to erupt following Lee’s visit to the DMV. Soul Wingz restaurant found itself in the midst of a social media firestorm after the establishment asked Lee to visit its Northwest DC location.

As a part of his video explaining the shortage of more DMV reviews, Lee shared photos of food from unnamed locations he didn’t want to publicly review. It appears that certainly one of those photos got here from a Google review of Soul Wingz.

However, Soul Wingz insisted that Keith Lee would never eat their food. Restaurant reported on Instagram didn’t need any publicity, but admitted that the photos on Google were related to the corporate’s activities.

“These pictures are from our reviews when it comes to the red plate. I posted a picture on our Instagram and said this is how the chef eats when we don’t know what to eat. We definitely don’t serve food on plates,” Soul Wingz said.

The statement continued: “The second plate is also ours, but we have over 500 better photos he could have chosen from, so I will never deny that they are our photos. Because of who he is, it is not a fair representation of us or what we do and offer.”

Lee addressed the Soul Wingz situation on his Instagram Story. Washingtonian Problems on X reposted Lee’s message admitting to using Google images.

“We Googled them and the pictures I posted were some of the first to come up,” Lee wrote. The Detroit-born influencer also admitted that he didn’t visit Soul Wingz during his visit.

He also offered advice to Soul Wingz, writing, “As you stated, this is not reflective of the food you serve, so if your goal is to reach a new audience, I would personally consider removing any photos that do not reflect your standards for your business.”
