In recent news, Chris Brown has denied accusations of him being antisemitic soon after he was slammed online.
The reason why people came after the Run It hitmaker was because he was seen dancing to Vultures, a controversial song that was recently released by Kanye West.
The video of the star dancing along to the song next to the singer of the song himself was circulated on social media.
The two had met up in Dubai at a party and started to jam to a number of tracks, which also included the recent release.
The track was put out by Kanye earlier in the month, and it addresses his antisemitism controversy from 2022.
It features the line where the rapper questions being labeled antisemitic, given that he is a devout Jew himself.
Soon after he started receiving backlash, the 34-year-old took to social media to insist that he is not antisemitic.
The singer claimed that he is pro-life and makes music for people everywhere. He further claimed that people should not spread hate about him based on rumors as he is not okay with such a thing.
The musician’s Instagram stories further included a special heart emoji for children who may consider him antisemitic despite the fact that he is not. This was the star’s way of apologizing for confusing his younger fan base.
There is no denying that Kanye West was disgraced in the previous year when he lost a number of business deals.
This took place shortly after he made a couple of antisemitic comments in interviews and on social media in the later months of 2022.
Vultures was the first song released by the singer after the controversy. It features various other stars, such as Lil Durk, Bump J, and Ty Dolla $ign.
