(CelebNMusic247-News) Lil Wayne Fires Shots at Riley Cooper‘s Racial Slur
Lil Wayne has responded to NFL player Riley Cooper’s racist rant that was caught on camera at a Kenny Chesney concert.
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Riley Cooper has been under public scrutiny since he caught on camera at a Kenny Chesney concert. However, Cooper was recently fined for a racist rant.
Cooper is seen angrily uttering a racial slur in the clip, after he was allegedly denied backstage access by a black security guard. Public scrutiny is not the only punishment Cooper is facing, who on top of being fined, has also left the Eagles, who have excused him from all team activities.
Lil Wayne has commented on the situation via twitter, sending a diss Riley Cooper’s way. The rapper responded with the message “Riley Cooper kan suk my ….”
The Philadelphia Eagles receiver said in an official team statement:
“Right now, I think it’s important for me to take some time to reflect on this situation.”
“The organization and my teammates have been extremely supportive, but I also realize that there are people who will have a tough time forgiving me for what I’ve done. The best thing for me, and for the team, is to step away for a period of time.”
The Eagles also provided a response to the incident which reads in a statement:
“Riley Cooper will be seeking counseling and we have excused him from all team activities.”
“This is all new territory and we are going to evaluate this timetable every step of the way. He will meet with professionals provided by the Eagles during this period of time to better help him understand how his words have hurt so many, including his teammates.”
