Sexyy Red and Mike Jones have both expressed their views on a white TikTok user who casually dropped atomic bombs on the camera in a recent cooking video shared on the platform that went viral.
In case you missed it, controversy erupted when TikTok user @llddiiss (presumably named Lilly) posted a cooking video in which she nonchalantly used the N-word to describe her married friend’s male partner.
More specifically, Lily said all of her friends are currently “married to bad guys” without batting an eyelash. To make matters worse, the young white woman continued the trolling on social media, with the incident spreading on platforms like Twitter (X) and Instagram.
“The whole world heard this n###a,” Lily wrote in a series of tweets she penned shortly after the controversy broke out.
X user Lilly (@llddiiss) went viral on X and TikTok for calling Jewish influence in politics “gay,” using the N-word unapologetically, and calling herself America First.
She has since thanked “the black community” for launching her “new career in conservative media.”

The incident quickly gained traction on social media, with people expressing backlash over her use of a racial slur. Eli Lilly was soon identified as a former employee of the medical services company Rophe of the Carolinas.
The company responded quickly, firing the employee and issuing a public statement condemning the use of racist language and reaffirming its commitment to diversity and inclusion. Lily appears to have responded by embracing the controversy and using publicity as a tool to announce her new career path.
“Thank you to the black community for helping me launch a new career in conservative media! You all played your roles like puppets,” she wrote in another tweet.
Lily went on to criticize black people at large for channeling their collective anger into a campaign to put her out of a job, describing those who were upset by her comments as “obsessed,” among other things. Soon after, she began to receive attention from artists such as Big sexyy and Mike Jones, who all agreed that Lily was indeed wrong.
“She bet I won’t find out,” Sexyy wrote in the comments section of the post that retweeted Lilly’s tweet.
Former Swisha House artist and Texas rap artist Mike Jones chose a different approach, slamming her in the comments section of the post and taking matters into his own hands by creating a post of his own to punish her.

In his initial comments, Jones used reverse psychology, subverting Lily’s own logic against her.
“I’m not even a racist, but because she’s cool and gets a pass to do what she does, thanks to the white community for helping her educate on race, she credits the black community with opening her up in conservative media A new career,” Jones wrote in part.
He continued, “No, you all played your roles as well as we expected, like the puppets you are, (co-signed and given a b########! Don’t come tell us about you now Got fired because you and I should know what comes with that!!️ s/o to her job which I’m sure is not cool with the racial slurs you hear all over the world.
In the post he shared, Jones went on to explain that his anger was not unique, while also expressing displeasure with Lily for playing the victim.
“All I can say is… I was told that fair exchange is not robbery! I have a lot of white friends and even they are shocked by this,” he said in part.
He continued, effectively labeling Eli Lilly an “impact chaser.”
“& not happy with her statement because they said she intentionally used the N-word knowing it came from her and by default it would go viral, #TheyDoAnyThing4Clout s/o to her job, she Fire her as soon as you get the news! Don’t take advantage of our community while disrespecting us and think you’ll end up blowing up in the media, you blow up, not the kind of hype I think she was expecting – we have to do better, “He said.
