Chuck D Slams Hot 97 Summer Jam

6-9-14

Billboard reports The Public Enemy co-founder has been in a Twitter fight with Hot 97 since the June 1 Summer Jam. He says his unhappiness about Summer Jam was over the prolific use of the N-word and a musical line-up he said did not adequately represent the New York hip-hop community. He says it's time things changed. "If there was a festival and it was filled with anti-Semitic slurs... or racial slurs at anyone but black people, what do you think would happen? Why does there have to be such a double standard?" (picture courtesy Billboard)
