2 Chainz made sure to give back this Thanksgiving but didn’t hold back his frustration with certain “friends” who didn’t show up to help. The rapper, alongside his family and staff from his Esco restaurant, hosted their annual food drive on Tuesday, Nov. 26, organized through his Tru Foundation nonprofit. Despite the event’s success, 2 Chainz took to Instagram Live to express his disappointment.

“I stayed up all night and still went to give back to people in the community,” he said. “People ask me for favors all the time, ask me for money all the time, and y’all can’t even pop up to help me help other people?” He continued, “So now I’m working for you? I’m out here grindin’, getting my money to help you because you can’t get your hustle together. I’m helping the unfortunate, and you one of the unfortunate, but you ain’t even gonna come back? Y’all gon’ have to leave me the f**k alone for a minute for real.”

Though 2 Chainz didn’t name names, his disappointment was clear. “What else were you doing?” he asked rhetorically.

Through the Tru Foundation, which he co-founded with his wife, Nakesha Ward-Epps, in 2011, the rapper has long been committed to giving back. Beyond the annual food drive, he’s provided backpacks and school supplies with his son, Halo, and even donated a minivan to a family in need.
This Thanksgiving, the rapper’s frustration serves as a reminder that giving back is about community effort—not just one person’s grind.
