Throughout his appearance on The Joe Budden Podcast, Dr. Umar sparked controversy with divisive takes, notably challenging the declaration of Eminem as a rap GOAT. He argued that such assertions were not only insulting to Black people but also indicative of "white supremacy."

Citing an African fundamentalist perspective, Dr. Umar vehemently asserted, "No non-African can ever be the best of anything African. It is an insult to the ancestors, it is an insult to the race, and it is an insult to every Black person."
Dr. Umar says Eminem is not one of greatest rappers of all time because he's not African.

He further criticized prominent figures like Eminem, DJ Khaled, and DJ Vlad, asserting that they were not contributing to community development in the same way he believes should be maintained within a specific ethnicity's control.
However, Dr. Umar faced considerable backlash for his controversial comments, especially after making disparaging remarks about Kobe Bryant's widow, Vanessa Bryant, and her alleged lack of support for the Black community.
The intersection of social media personalities, cultural perspectives, and societal debates highlights the ongoing discourse around racial identity, cultural ownership, and the responsibilities of influential figures within the Black community.
