After sharing her thoughts, Leray took some time to debate with users who believe she benefitted from the very thing she's complaining about.

As she embarks upon the week of her 26th birthday, Coi Leray has a few things to get off of her chest. On Monday (May 8), the Trendsetter hitmaker used her Twitter profile to vent about the current status of the field she works in, writing, "The music industry is oversaturated. Every song is a hit. Everybody is a star." Thousands of followers made it known they agree with the singer by liking or retweeting the post, but others didn't hesitate to chime in with their opinions challenging Leray's comments.

"Can't help but think Coi benefited from said saturation," one user pointed out, seemingly referring to the endless TikTok hits the Boston baddie has released throughout her career. "Valid message, wrong messenger," their message concluded. On Tuesday (May 9) morning, Leray responded to that tweet, along with a few others. "Y'all [buggin]," she chiefly declared. "My versatility, my stage presence, my stats, my collabs, my brand deals," the "Anxiety" artist quickly reminded readers of her various talents aside from crafting catchy tracks.

"[I'm a] fashion girl. I can dance, sing, [and] rap. It's fine if you don't see it now, I'm in no rush for you to notice," Coi's clap back continued. In another post that landed on her feed minutes later, she publicly hyped herself up even more as a reminder to any would-be haters that her confidence isn't so easy to shake. "Lol, I'm that girl. Real life. Offline. In the booth, on the stage, on the red carpet. On the radio, overseas, and that's just what it is, Leray noted. "Shout out to my bitches who stay true to themselves and [don't give a f*ck] what nobody has to say!"

In later tweets, the soon-to-be birthday girl made it known that it's all love, and she didn't want to start drama with anyone. Rather, she's reflecting on her achievements throughout the last year ahead of turning 26 on Thursday (May 11). Keep scrolling to read more from Coi Leray's latest Twitter rant.
