The responses to Kanye West's comments about slavery have been coming in very quickly as many raced to voice their disgust at his words after he ranted to TMZ yesterday. While he has attempted to clear up his intent behind the words, a number of his fans have singled out this incident as one of the more inflammatory moments of his career. With even the most reclusive artists like Frank Ocean having an opinion about Ye's comments, it was only a matter of time for the more outspoken celebrities to speak up. In one of the more intense responses we've seen thus far, Chris Brown fired heavy shots at Kanye on Instagram.
Chris started his fully-capitalized statement, "THIS IS JUST ENTERTAINMENT TO YALL. I DONT GIVE A FUCK!!!!" While Ye's current album rollout does feel somewhat cinematic, Chris is pointing out a reluctance some are experiencing in speaking out. He continued, "THIS MAN IS A CLOWN! OUR SONG JUST WENT PLATINUM BUT FUCK THAT! CMON BRUH, and if any flunkies gotta problem,, SEE ME... please!" Brown was not finished there, urging POCs around the world to drown out his noise, writing, "PLEASE BLACK PEOPLE... DO NOT FOLLOW THIS NIGGA ON HIS PATH TO DESTRUCTION! WHATEVER HELP U THINK I NEED.... GET IT FOR HIM ASAP! IMA FAN OF THIS MANS MUSIC SO WHAT HE SAYS IS LISTENED TO AND INTERNALIZED. WAKE THE HELL UP KANYE.... PLEASE. SLAVERY WAS A CHOICE???????? Whattttttt??????"
Breezy's comments are some of the most passionate we have read as people continue to send messages to Kanye, looking for clarity. Do you think Chris was spot on in his response or did he miss the mark?
