Nick Cannon has long been the but of many jokes when it comes to his rhyming skills. Many would say his musical catalog leaves much to be desired. If you ask me, I've heard worse. WAY worse! I hear worse every time I turn on terrestrial radio or go to the club. Nick Cannon by my estimate is am average rapper.
Well, leave it to Nick Cannon to shock the world with his most socially charged rhymes to date. The 35 year old showed another side of him this past weekend; a side many of us never knew existed. Mr. Wild n' Out delivered a superb spoken word poem that was released on Sunday. Amidst all the Oscars hoopla, Nick Cannon dropped a two-minute video of him sharing his thoughts on Hollywood, the Oscars and the plight of the African American struggle. Cannon says:
Look what they did to Oscar...nah, not another trophy rant. ...I'm talking Oscar Grant, Sandra Bland, Mike Brown, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Freddie Gray. Why we trust what the news say anyway? It's blasphemous, don't get distracted by these lottery tickets and statues.
Peep the video here:
I wonder if Cannon has anymore rhymes like this in the clip or if this was a just a one shot, one kill type of deal? Either way, salute to Nick Cannon for this one!
