American rapper Uncle Luke ripped into Tiger Woods in a bizarre tirade on social media after falling for a fake post which claimed the golf legend had criticized Kamala Harris for having a ‘fake black accent’.
Uncle Luke, whose real name is Luther Roderick Campbell, appeared to stumble upon a fake remark by Woods that has been circulating online over the past week.
The quote, which has been debunked, reads about about Democratic nominee Harris: ‘Kamala’s fake black accent is embarrassing and extremely offensive.’
Social-media users were quick to discover that the made-up comment actually came from a parody account with a history of posting fake quotes on X.
However, after seemingly failing to realize that it was fabricated, Campbell directed an offensive and expletive rant towards Woods in a bizarre video on Instagram.

The 63-year-old was left in astonishment that he had taken offense to Harris’ ‘black accent’; first branding him a derogatory term before referencing his claim to be Cablinasian (Caucasian, Black, American Indian and Asian) during a 1997 appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show.
‘Not you. Not the one who denounced his blackness and called yourself a Cablinasian,’ Campbell said.
He went on to blast Tiger for ‘only dating Karens’ – seemingly a reference to his previous relationships with white women – and allegedly claiming that he isn’t black.
Campbell concluded about the fake quote: ‘All of a sudden it’s insulting to the Cablinasian nation of your people?’
He also singled out Tyrese Gibson for criticism after the American singer and actor recently slammed Harris and President Joe Biden for passing the Anti-Asian Hate Crime Bill and not protecting the Black and Brown communities in similar fashion.

A number of users quickly told Uncle Luke that his furious rant about Tiger was ill-informed
‘I can’t take this s**t anymore,’ Campbell captioned the video. ‘Tyrese and Tiger Woods you guys cannot be motherf****ng serious.’
A number of users were quick to point out that he had fallen for a fake quote attributed to Woods, with one writing: ‘we gotta pay attention. They got yall. The Woods quote is fake. We gotta really look at everything before we run with it.’
Another posted: ‘where you read Tiger woods said that man, check your source’.
While one joked: ‘you can delete this, you still got time’.
