50 Cent is confused about Ye’s lawyer saying the latter’s antisemitic comments were art.
On Feb. 23, Ye’s lawyers Andrew and Katie Cherkasky filed an appeal for an ongoing antisemitism lawsuit against him, claiming that a lower court was wrong not to dismiss a Jewish marketing specialists’s workplace discrimination allegations on the grounds of the First Amendment.
Ye’s lawyer said that the rapper’s public persona is “intentionally provocative and thematically charged,” and that referring to himself as a “Nazi” and “Hitler” is protected because it's a part of his artistic expression.
“The communications she challenges — creative directives, conceptual drafts, provocative imagery, marketing strategy and staffing decisions shaping a public-facing message — were not collateral to Ye’s art; they were part of its development,” wrote the lawyers.
So, what’s that have to do with Fif? Well in true Fif fashion, the rapper loves to comment on the wildest things he sees in pop culture. On Instagram, he reposted a picture of a news article pertaining to the lawyers’ comments and added a hilarious, confused perspective.
“Now why the fuck would the lawyer say that,” wrote Fif with a face palm emoji. “DAMN IT MAN! LOL.”
Fif should probably spend less time worrying about what Ye’s lawyers are talking about and focus more on his ongoing beef with T.I. and King Harris. Though their feud has stretched back at least a decade, it got serous recently when Fif told T.I. to keep his name out of his mouth, posted an unflattering photo of his wife, Tiny, and then suggested that the rapper’s children were “little fucked up albino kids.”
For what it’s worth, T.I. hasn’t taken any of this to the chin. He’s released multiple disses and seemingly wants all of the smoke.
