LeBron James slams NFL, calls owners ‘old white men’ with ‘slave mentality’
Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James slammed the NFL over the national anthem controversy, claiming the league is 'a bunch of old white men owning teams and they got that slave mentality.'
Rapper 21 Savage apologized this week for his "Jewish money" lyrics that got LeBron James in hot water.
Over the weekend, James posted a video of himself listening to the 21 Savage track "ASMR," which contains the lyrics "We been getting that Jewish money, everything is Kosher."
James apologized for the clip on Monday in a statement to ESPN, telling the network, "Apologies, for sure, if I offended anyone. That's not why I chose to share that lyric. I always [post lyrics]. That's what I do. I ride in my car, I listen to great music and that was the byproduct of it. So, I actually thought it was a compliment and obviously it wasn't through the lens of a lot of people. My apologies. It definitely was not the intent, obviously, to hurt anybody."
