Boosie wants Usher to apologize to Swizz Beatz.

Boosie Badazz is demanding Usher apologize to Swizz Beatz for the way he embraced Alicia Keys during his Super Bowl Halftime Show performance on Sunday night. Boosie reacted to the viral moment with a post on Instagram after the game.

"@USHER ENOUGH IS ENOUGH BRO‼️" Boosie wrote. "U NEED TO APOLOGIZE TO SWISS SHE MARRIED MY N***A I KNOW THAT WASNT PLANNED." Not all of Boosie's followers were in agreement with his disappointment. "Swizz Beatz knew what it was when his wife agreed to perform. Usher is a performer," one commented. Another added: "Y’all so goofy on this app, This was a performance, just like acting. They’re both married and I’m sure both their spouses knew of this hug."
