Good on them taking action. That rhetoric is ugly as hell. He should apologize.

It really saddens my soul that he is trying to spread even more division between black and Jewish communities, as if there isn't enough division in this country. He even got people in his comments section going at each other...and over Israel and Palestine.
Used to thought he was a really cool and funny guy. It sounds like he's been completely brainwashed..smh. I swear that these are the saddest times to live in. |

Nick Cannon apologizes for "hurtful and divisive" comments, gets to keep Masked Singer gig
After losing his ViacomCBS relationship earlier this week following comments that the company described as “hateful speech and…anti-Semitic conspiracy theories,” Nick Cannon has apologized. “First and foremost I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth,” the radio personality and (at least for now) former Wild ’N Out host tweeted Wednesday evening. “They reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people and I feel ashamed of the uninformed and naïve place that these words came from. The video of this interview has since been removed.” The mea culpa is apparently enough for Fox brass, who have now announced Cannon will continue as the host of The Masked Singer.
On a recent episode of his podcast Cannon’s Class, Cannon said that people who have “the lack of pigment” are “a little less” than those who do, and have “a lack of compassion.... They’re acting out of fear. They’re acting out of low self esteem. They’re acting out of a deficiency. So therefore the only way they can act is evil. They have to rob, steal, rape...in order to survive.” Cannon also shared some thoughts about The Rothschilds—a Jewish family that rose to prominence in the 1700s and have been the subject of antisemitic conspiracy theories—and “the bloodlines that control everything, even outside of America.” He said that Black people are the “true Hebrews.”
When the backlash began earlier this week, Cannon tweeted: “Anyone who knows me knows that I have no hate in my heart nor malice intentions. I do not condone hate speech nor the spread of hateful rhetoric. We are living in a time when it is more important than ever to promote unity and understanding.” But it wasn’t enough for ViacomCBS, the company is behind Cannon’s long-running MTV sketch comedy series Wild ’N Out, which he’s hosted since 2005 and recently expanded to VH1. “ViacomCBS condemns bigotry of any kind and we categorically denounce all forms of anti-Semitism,” reads a statement from the company given to Variety. “We have spoken with Nick Cannon [and] we are deeply troubled that Nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating anti-Semitism, and we are terminating our relationship with him.”
Cannon—who left his America’s Got Talent gig in 2017 after a disagreement with NBC over a joke in his Showtime comedy special—responded Wednesday morning by posting on Facebook that he was “deeply saddened” that CBSViacom didn’t see the situation as an opportunity to “grow closer together and learn more about one another.” “Instead the moment was stolen and highjacked [sic] to make an example of an outspoken black man. I will not be bullied, silenced, or continuously oppressed by any organization, group, or corporation,” he continued. “I am disappointed that Viacom does not understand or respect the power of the black community.” He went on to demand “full ownership of my billion dollar Wild ’N Out brand.”
After Cannon’s lengthy apology to the Jewish community later in the day (which is published in full on his Facebook), Fox appears to have taken another route with the situation. “When we were made aware of Nick Cannon’s interview with Richard Griffin on YouTube, we immediately began a dialogue with Nick,” Fox said in a statement, according to USA Today. “He is clear and remorseful that his words were wrong and lacked both understanding and context, and inadvertently promoted hate. This was important for us to observe. Nick has sincerely apologized, and quickly taken steps to educate himself and make amends. On that basis and given a belief that this moment calls for dialogue, we will move forward with Nick and help him advance this important conversation, broadly. Fox condemns all forms of hate directed toward any community and we will combat bigotry of any kind.”
“I just had the blessed opportunity to converse with Rabbi Abraham Cooper director of global social action @simonwiesenthal,” tweeted in the start of a second series of tweets later Wednesday, after news of getting to keep his Masked Singer duties broke. “My first words to my brother was, I apologize for the hurt I caused the Jewish Community...On my podcast I used words & referenced literature I assumed to be factual to uplift my community instead turned out to be hateful propaganda and stereotypical rhetoric that pained another community For this I am deeply sorry but now together we can write a new chapter of healing.”

Well thank god for him it was just thoughts and not action. I think he deserved his punishment but definitely hate to see someone lose their life. He should get help for whatever demons he has been fighting now and since a few years ago he just hasnt been his old self. http://instagram.com/p/CC1ENfQBx7W |

Yeah...he needs help, like serious help. He needs to step back from the spotlight for a while, and find himself.

Stephanie Mills Says Nick Cannon And Kanye West Are Acting Like ‘Paid Slaves’ Over Presidential RunAmid a campaign muddled with controversy, Ms. Mills gives her opinion. Royce Dunmore Written By Royce Dunmore Posted 17 hours ago Ms. Stephanie Mills had some words for Kanye West and Nick Cannon amid West’s apparent run for president. The singer and stage legend took to Instagram to get her feelings off her chest. She started by expressing empathy for West, who has bipolar disorder. “First, I know that Kanye is suffering mentally. I know that he’s swinging high and low and I really pray and hope that he gets help,” she started. “But I must say that I’m disappointed because if he’s trying to help our community by running for president, it’s not helping our community. He’s not qualified to be president. Neither is the person at the White House at this time.” Mills then turned her attention to Nick Cannon, who recently told TMZ that he “loves” the idea of Kanye running for president and that he would vote for him at the polls. “You I don’t understand,” Mills said in her video. “For you to come out and do what you did, like supporting Kanye, what is that?” Mills continued: “I don’t understand it. Kanye’s being paid to do what he’s doing. Now are we to believe that you’re also being paid to be a distraction? You guys are acting like little boys in a sandbox with toys. But being that you’re acting like that, as a mother, I would like to say, take your toys go home and sit down and get help. Get therapy.” Mills further explained how people were suffering during this time due to the coronavirus pandemic and high unemployment. “Nick you should know better because you’ve learned and listened to the teachings. So you should know better,” Mills said. “We have no time for you two to be out here acting like little paid slaves. I said it.” West’s campaign for president has been full of controversy since he announced his running on July 4. For the past couple of weeks, he’s been trying to collect signatures in different states so he can get on the ballot. However, states like Wisconsin are calling out West, saying he’s late in submitting signatures. According to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, their state Democratic Party filed a complaint on Friday requesting state officials block West from appearing on Wisconsin’s presidential ballot this November. They even said West has various problems with his nomination papers, including incorrect addresses for circulators and bogus signatures like “Mickey Mouse” and “Bernie Sanders”. Affidavits are included from six individuals saying they were duped into putting their names on West’s paperwork. “If the affidavits are true … crimes were committed by the West campaign,” explained attorney Michael Maistelman, who collected the affidavits for the state Democratic Party. On top of all this, Republicans have been helping West get on the presidential ballots as a third party candidate. The New York Times wrote that it’s “increasingly looking like an operation run by President Trump’s allies and Republican activists that is aimed at diverting votes from Joseph R. Biden Jr.” “The strategy became overt on Tuesday, when Lane Ruhland, a lawyer who has worked for the Trump campaign, delivered ballot signatures to Wisconsin elections officials on behalf of the West campaign,” reported the Times. The report continued: “Several other people active in the party are connected to Mr. West’s candidacy. One operative, Mark Jacoby, is an executive at a company called Let the Voters Decide, which has been collecting signatures for the West campaign in Ohio, West Virginia and Arkansas. Mr. Jacoby was arrested on voter fraud charges in 2008 while he was doing work for the California Republican Party, and he later pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor.” There’s no word on whether Kanye has been getting paid by Republicans to get on the ballots as Ms. Mills seemed to insinuate. However, considering the messiness of his campaign so far, more investigations could be on the way. newsone.com/3992690/stephanie-mills-nick-cannon-and-kanye-west-paid-slaves-presidential-run

There is something very weird going on with him. It's eurocentric to have a family with only one woman? I'm sorry...any way you slice it, having nearly simultaneous kids with multiple women is...I don't know...questionable? Problematic? Trashy? Like...how can he actually spend any real time with these kids?
I wonder if he even sees Roc and Roe at this point...I imagine it's pretty tough to amicably co-parent with him. We know MC will not speak on it though.

Hasn't he had kids by three different women in the past year alone? Yeah... I try my best to be open-minded, but something about that is just disgusting and irresponsible to me. And no matter how he tries to explain it, it just sounds like BS (did he seriously just try to sell that as feminism, lmao).
Bang who you want to bang, but when kids enter the picture, you need damn reality check. There is no way he's going to be there for all those kids in the ways he should be. But who knows, maybe that's for the best.
