‘That’s Disrespectful’: Lori Harvey Posts Video of Future’s New Song Where He Seemingly Takes Aim at Steve Harvey

Lori Harvey went to the Bahamas this weekend to attend former Basketball Wives” star Draya Michele‘s Mint Swimwear pool party. During her time on vacation, the model posted a video on her Instagram story of her walking around in a multi-colored swimsuit coverup listening to Future‘s remix of his already hit song “Life is Good.”

The rapper said in his new single, “She calls me daddy cause my money’s long like Stevie.” Fans found the rap lyrics to be extremely disrespectful and took to Instagram to explain how they felt about Harvey posting a video that seemingly dissed her father, Steve Harvey.

One user said, Wait and she posted this? Steve old school so ain’t no way he wouldn’t have an issue with this smh. That’s disrespectful IDC.”

This is low-key disrespecting her and Steve 🤣🤣🤣😂😂.. especially Steve ..😭😭🤣🤣,” said another user.

“🤔 And she’s OK w/this?! U gotta draw the line somewhere #WhewTheDisrespect,” a third said.

Another user said, “Everybody calling him daddy except his KIDS🙄”

“Who raised her?” a fan commented.

Future and Harvey have been casually dating for the past couple of months, and fans seem to think their relationship is heating up. Over the weekend, the rapper filled Harvey’s entire house with red roses and candles to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

The pair also went to Jamaica in January to bring in Harvey’s 23rd birthday. The rapper posted a picture on his IG page of him and Harvey sitting in a private pool with Harvey rocking a $490 Christian Dior bikini. He captioned the picture with “Life is Good.”

While their relationship appears to be going strong through social media, individually, each faces their own set of legal battles. The rapper is currently taking the alleged mother of his child, Eliza Reign, to court because he says she keeps spilling details about their sex life. According to The Blast, Future is suing her for libel, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The rapper currently has six children with six different women.

Back in October, Harvey allegedly hit a parked car on Moreno Drive in Los Angeles. During the accident, her Mercedes G-Wagon flipped over and she fled the scene by walking away. The star is due in court Feb. 28 for a pretrial hearing after pleading not-guilty.

While fans have mixed reviews about the couple being together, Steve has said he knows nothing about their relationship. The comedian was approached by Hollywood Fix and was asked how he felt about his daughter dating the rapper. He said, “I don’t know nothing about that.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
