They were the reason that in 2020 Tyson made waves for standing up to rapper Boosie Badazz after he made controversial comments about Dwyane Wade’s daughter, Zaya.

Ramsey reflected on their father’s decision to educate Boosie, saying, “Part of the reason why I wanted to talk to Boosie about it is because I’m a nonbinary person who’s socially transitioned amongst my friends and started a medical transition. I felt like I couldn’t not say something.”

I have to redefine our relationship because sometimes I’m hard on them. I got to remember they didn’t grow up in Brownsville, so they don’t need to be treated hard.”

As for the bond he shares with his sons, he said, “There’s a part of us that we don’t want nobody to know, but it comes out in our children. We see things that we don’t like about ourselves and we try to check him on that so he won’t be like us.”
