Chris Brown denied being anti-semitic after dancing to a Kanye West song in Dubai over the weekend. On Sunday night, Ye,Ty Dolla $ign and rapper Bump J gave a surprise performance of their latest track “Vultures” during Lil Durk’s show at nightclub Blu in Dubai.
Video shows Chris and Kanye laughing to his song, which includes Ye’s lyrics “How am I antisemitic? I just f***ed a Jewish b****.”
The controversial track also includes the lyrics: “I just f***ed Scooter’s b**** and we ran her like Olympics. Got pregnant in the threesome, so whose baby is it?”
The lyrics are in reference to Kanye’s former manager Scooter Braun who is Jewish. Ye fired Scooter in 2018.
Chris responded to the backlash on his Instagram Story: “In no way, shape or form am I antisemitic!!! I’m pro life and I make music for the entire world,” he said.
“So please do not get tricked into thinking I spread hate or am kool with it. This is for the millions of young kids that look up to me and my [sic] be confused.”
In another post, Chris warned a Jewish influencer of his gang affiliation.
“Let me make this perfectly clear before y’all try to use me as a pawn… Ima Piru, I ain’t Muslim or Jewish so don’t start no sh-t won’t be no sh-t!!!”
He continued: “I’M TRYING TO BE PEACEFUL BUT PLEASE DO NOT WAKE UP THE DEMON IN ME! GO ON ABOUT YOUR F***ING DAY.”
Brown later updated his post to remove any mention of religion or gang affiliation (Piru is a subset of the Bloods gang).
Kanye is already canceled in America for going on an anti-Semitic rant last year. He spent the last few months working on his album in Europe.
