Nick Cannon was fired by ViacomCBS on Tuesday (July 14) after some perceived anti-Semitic comments he made on his Cannon’s Class YouTube show went viral.
During an interview with controversial figure Professor Griff of Public Enemy fame — who was once fired from the group for anti-Semitic comments of his own — Cannon said whites were the “true savages,” praised the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and promoted conspiracy theories about the Rothschild banking family and the notion people of African descent are the “true” Jews.
Los Angeles-based rapper Kosha Dillz, who has built a whole career around his Jewish heritage, spoke to HipHopDX about the toxicity of Cannon’s words and the damage they’ve done to the Jewish community.
“Nick Cannon is problematic because he claims to fight white supremacy but has combined Jews into white supremacy and running the world, while supremacy targets Jews and Blacks together,” he tells DX. “Nick is using the positive fuel of the current civil rights movement for justice to end police brutality and combining it with hateful rhetoric from Farrakhan — who calls Jews termites and Satan — to create baseless statements of ‘Jews having too much power’ and ‘controlling the banks.'”
Kosha continues, “This divisive commentary is meant to divide Jews and Blacks who marched side-by-side in the first Civil Rights Movement. Nick’s rhetoric is the same rhetoric that led to the Jersey City and Monsey, New York attacks on Jews in December of 2019. If you look at the statistics, Jews are the most targeted minority in America for hate crimes. We are less than .2 percent of the world’s population.
“To give it context of how bad this is, Chuck D kicked Professor Griff out of Public Enemy for being anti-Semitic and Nick joined him on his show and applauded him saying we are fake Jews and ‘they’ are the real Hebrews. I met Nick and he surely didn’t speak any Hebrew to me.”
Cannon has since offered an apology to the Jewish community in a lengthy Facebook post, writing, “I must apologize to my Jewish Brothers and Sisters for putting them in such a painful position, which was never my intention, but I know this whole situation has hurt many people and together we will make it right.
“I have dedicated my daily efforts to continuing conversations to bring the Jewish Community and the African American community closer together, embracing our differences and sharing our commonalities.”
The Power 106 personality also promised to take action to unite the Black and Jewish communities and further understand Jewish heritage.
“I have dedicated my daily efforts to continuing conversations to bring the Jewish Community and the African American community closer together, embracing our differences and sharing our commonalities,” he wrote. “Through the guidance of my multicultural team which embodies several people from the Jewish Community, specifically Michael Goldman my business partner for 3 decades who discovered me at the Hollywood Improv when I was doing Stand Up as a kid.
“As we embark on this next ‘Ncredible’ journey together we will bring our two persecuted communities together like we always planned. He and so many gracious people from the Jewish Community are showering me with love and helping to guide me to the Promise land, literally l am excited to announce that I have been invited to Israel which is a lifelong dream where I will receive teachings, lessons and truth about the Jewish history. As someone who is in pursuit for my PHD in Theology and Divinity and just received a degree in Criminal Justice from the Great Howard University, this will be an enriching, enlightening and overall exciting trip!”
Nick Cannon Demands Ownership Of 'Wild 'N Out' After ViacomCBS Ousting
Still, Kosha isn’t convinced and insists Cannon has a lot more to learn.
“Jewish people have received unanswered promises over the years,” he adds. “Nick needs a first hand lesson and eye-to-eye experience with how Jews we’re killed for not being white. He should be invited to Auschwitz to see the concentration camps where my family was killed and millions of others have. He needs to understand Jews were ‘given Hollywood’ because it was trash before it became a thing.
“He needs to know Jews were in ‘money lending’ because it was considered the worst profession to be in. He has to unlearn every conspiracy theory he has been taught. And sure go to Israel and learn a bit. But he still has to be ‘canceled’ because until he is, he will never learn the consequences, no matter how many Jewish business partners he has that don’t call him out on his bullshit.”
His name is really Kosha Dillz?
Not his govt name, but yeah thats his name.
Dillz is mad corny. What, Remedy or Edan wasn’t available?
So are you. Good lord everyone just wants to bitch. Save it for your mama.
It’s good to hear from kosher dillz again
If he’s saying they were given Hollywood then in fact they help perpetuate a black stigma in society. Which helps push any racial agenda white supremacists might have. So nick is right.
You’re a complete idiot. If all of the systematic racism and black stigma bullshit existed, how are we even talking about nick cannon right now? This idiot became famous for playing drums and marching around like a jack ass, he also became famous television shows on white/Jooish owned networks. Please honestly explain to me what black stigma Hollywood is perpetrating the black celebrities don’t push 10 times more. There isn’t one. Please shut your hypocrite ass up. You’re the reason this country is going to shit.
You sound butt hurt. There’s a million movies where black are shown as ignorant imbeciles or gay. Not to mention butlers or maids or some other degrading role. Hypocrite nah. I only stand on one side. This country is where it’s at because mfers like you who only see shit one way but fuck your way.
Blacks direct most of those movies you are complaining about and black actors love those roles. We only have ourselves to blame
Look up Dr. Frances Cress Welsing
Your right but they know how to pick sellouts very well. Just pick someone who comes from nothing, has no identity of self, or no love for their community. They will most likely do anything for a bag. Give a starving person junk food and they will eat it even though it’s bad for them.
That’s you being.brainwashed lmao by the joos you compare your racial problems to shit on movies and tv? Which is also ran by joos lmao you dont seem to know the world we live in little boy
Kosher dillz is right on this one. In my opinion he’s a terrible rapper, but he is Reppin his shit, so I respect that. I always found it amazing that people talk a bunch of shit about the Joos and blame them for all kinds of societal problems and downfalls etc. Anyone can convert to Judaism, it doesn’t instantly make you a multi millionaire. If they are who are running things secretly, I appreciate what they’re doing and I hope they do more. That being said, the nation of Islam’s ridiculous rhetoric that blacks are the original Joos, and the Jooish people are evil, it’s just stupid and it is genuinely hate speech I believe in the First Amendment, and I even believe hate speech should be protected, but it should be labeled as what it is and you should be confronted for it. The moral of the story is, fuck Nick Cannon. He is just another lame ass racist complaining about racism.
No one can convert to judaism, cause the hurdles are too high in regular.
I have several friends who have, dummy. You can EASILY. You simply have to learn basic Hebrew and study the Torah. Jackass.
Its 12 tribes the blacks belong to the first tribe which is the tribe of judah so if we aren’t the originals then what are we Emmanuel belongs to the tribe of judah so there for we are the original Hebrews facts why do you think its so much fear of the black race through years of brainwashed tatics to hold us back it don’t matter if you obtain success as our white counterparts you will be prosecuted for doing right People don’t hate just to hate they hate us out of fear
OH SHUT THE FUCK UP
And u as hoish as the other mf pussy stay in a childs place fuckboy all that internet poppin don’t mean shit jone so don’t bring anna and stay behind ur computer and talk shit
I’ll send you $100 if you can guess how many dicks we shoved into your mom last night
That’s all made up bullshit that has been proven time and time again to be historically wrong. Dumb dumb. All that 12 tribes of Judah bullshit is REAL big in Jamaica and Ethiopia. I think we can leave it at that. YOU wouldn’t survive a minute in either country. Nice fake Latino name BTW. Way to appropriate culture there, retard!
U a bitch for even commenting to my post so go fuck urself for one 2 a white man cant teach me shit on my history so stay in a childs place
Let me guess who own this company
The people calling themselves juiz are european descent.
At the end of days this people are whites the so called juize
From the same clan tribe as white people
Change your name there is not truth just ignorance
I don’t get why African Americans gets offered/beg to differ when we (Africans) call them fellow Africans. But always want to call themselves Hebrew.
Because you are a decedent of Ham and we are from Shem ! Both are Noahs sons, but two different nations of black people with different beliefs. We believe in Christ and you guys believe in the ancestors and sun moon and stars.
Well as far as I know Judaism doesn’t believe in Jesus Christ at all. does they? Also, I thought black people in US got forced to believe in Christ, by White slave owners, only after they were captured in West Africa.
I have a hard time listening to anything Kosha Dillz said. He used to sell cocaine w/ my friends in New Brunswick, NJ and when he got popped he gave up everyone and alot of good people went to jail. He didn’t only rat, he secretly recorded his “friends”. Just a real shitty opportunist of a dude. Not a bit of bone in his chest.
First you call a Joo boy a rat (stereotype). Then you expect he won’t snitch to get out of jail? Jail is bout surviving with your race like BGF, Aryans, Mexican mafia, and you know the rest. Most joos are white but the KKK hates the joos and n g s so joos are dead meat in county jail.
Has anyone read the sh*t?
quote Nick Cannon: “I am disappointed that Viacom does not understand or respect the power of the black community.”
And I thought community-power is the problem in general. Or why does everybody run with the white-supremecy-theme ?
What is the goal ? Equality or Black-supremecy ? I dont get it anymore…
And why in the hell would somebody want Nick Cannon to speak on anything related to that.
When was he struggling in his life???
What was the misfortune he had to go through in his life caused by the white savages???
(first savage animals now he calles them his brothers….)
I remember that girl some weeks ago that said Black people behave like animals in the streets.
She was canceld in minutes by her own community….
If u want racism to vanish u cant be racist urself !!! Is it really so hard to understand that fact ?
Damn yall are really wild n out. lol . comment section is oy
well what are the facts. someone get a history book then get back to us.
Personally I think that Nick wanted to ride Professor Griff genitals so hard that he went on full racist mode with no brakes
I say fuck culture, fuck heritage, fuck all that bullshit…you are what you are by chance, and to take pride in that to the point of hate towards others is so dumb and meaningless. Religion is mental illness…you put your life in the hands of bullshit that can never be proven to you, you why it can’t be proven right? We battle each other day in and day out over nothing…but we’re told it’s the most important battle in life. In the end…we just keep mindlessly battling nothing, while the ones who don’t really give a shit sit over us all, watching us be fools while their bank account swells. They’re not racists, they’re opportunists and we’re all fuckin stupid
What Nick said wasn’t anti-Semitic at all. Who is this guy supposed to be.
How god chose people
