J. Cole Apologizes for Offensive Autism Lyric (via NewsLook)
Video News by NewsLook Rappers have been getting in trouble for politically incorrect lyrics for decades. J. Cole is the most recent addition to the list, but now the rapper is delivering a sincere apology for the offense he caused.
Although I think it was a positive step in the right direction to make an open, public apology regarding his offensive and insensitive autism lyric, I do have to wonder just how sincere it was. Someone in his position has a career that is completely dependent on public approval. People have to like him, dig his music, etc. in order for him to have any sustainability. If he pisses off enough people, his career is dead.
