UPDATE: Eric Andre Criticizes Rap Community for Supporting Kodak Black & XXXTENTACION
Do you agree with him?
Eric Andre took to Twitter this weekend to share a few thoughts on the current hip-hop climate. He singled out Kodak Black and XXXTENTACION, criticizing the rap and hip-hop community for continually supporting these two Broward County, Florida artists.
“I got upset,” he tweeted. “I was like, why can I complain about racism freely, but criticize a rapper’s sexism and everyone gets butt hurt.” He also revealed that he was “mad” at himself for promoting XXXTENTACION’s music the other day, because his friend told him that X “beats up pregnant women.” Check out the tweets below and let us know if you agree with Andre’s sentiments.
racism, sexism, homophobia – it’s all bigotry. it is all part of the same systemic evil that keeps people subservient and disenfranchised.

Apathy gave rise to the Nazi’s in Germany, and allowed the Catholic church to get away with rampant child molestation.

If we continue turning a blind eye towards sexism, violence against women, racism, nazism, child abuse, homophobia, etc — we’re doomed.
