Fat Joe says Will Smith's slap makes minorities look bad


The recent Oscars incident where Will Smith slapped Chris Rock has sparked controversy and now rapper Fat Joe has spoken out about it. In an interview with TMZ in New York, Fat Joe remarked on the serious repercussions for people of color when it comes to demanding respect, highlighting that Will’s public display of violence reflects poorly on the community. He also emphasized that Will being the offender exacerbates the impact on their culture compared to other disputes, such as his own with 50 Cent. The altercation took place after Rock made a joke about Will’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head, due to her alopecia. Following the incident, Will Smith resigned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, with the Academy expected to announce its decision on disciplinary action against him.
