Well, there you go NFL you have found a new way to control the hip hop industry with one of their own leading them like the pied piper.
It’s sad when someone like Colin Kaepernick is trying to uplift the black community only to have another black influential help to misguide and oppress his own people. What makes it worse is that the hip hop community is embracing Jay-Z 100% but does any of them know why Kaepernick started the movement? Maybe they should get that bit of knowledge instead of sounding off without facts first? Read on since Freddie Gibbs Joins Jay-Z…
Well played, NFL. You got exactly what you wanted. https://t.co/SbUh4AuYKE

CelebNMusic247.com reports that the Hip Hop community continues to discuss Jay-Z’s decision to partner with the National Football League.
The sad part is they all think Colin Kaepernick is begging to be signed. They are NOT even knowing the facts behind the movement. The Hip Hop community is blindly supporting Jay-Z, the same guy who told Jermaine Dupri NOT to do a deal like this last year.
Its all a bit hypocrytical, but Freddie Gibbs feels he is in the right when he took to social media to say “F–k Colin Kaepernick!”
Indiana’s Freddie Gibbs inserted himself into the debate by posting a video on social media.
Gibbs said:
I’m riding with Jay-Z, straight up. F*ck Colin Kaepernick. All y’all n*ggas marched for Colin Kaepernick and he took a settlement and ain’t tell y’all what he got or nothing. He settled. Let it go. Y’all hating on Jay-Z for trying to own something in the NFL. Y’all n*ggas some motherf*cking crabs.
Some people took issue with Gibbs’ comments. For example, noted sports journalist Jemele Hill tweeted, “Well played, NFL. You got exactly what you wanted,” insinuating the league’s main objective was to get the public to turn on Kaepernick.
Hill had previously written a critical op-ed about Jay’s new association with the NFL. Her article was published in The Atlantic under the heading, “Jay-Z Helped the NFL Banish Colin Kaepernick.”
After being hit with a barrage of hate, Freddi had this to say:
We just have one question for Gibbs, how does Jay’s nuts taste since you licking them with Khaled?
