Following comments deemed anti-Semitic, Nick Cannon is being counseled by Madonna manager Guy Oseary at Diddy's request.
following comments the multi-hyphenate made on his podcast, “Cannon’s Class,” deemed anti-Semitic. During an interview with former Public Enemy member Professor Griff, Cannon said Black people are the “true Hebrews” and talked about anti-Semitic conspiracy theories involving the Rothschild family.
Cannon issued a series of apologies following the incident, the latest of which coincided with his decision to “take time away” from his Los Angeles-based radio show on Power 106.
Oseary, who was born in Israel and is the author of the 2000 book “Jews Who Rock,” wrote on Instagram that he spoke to Cannon “throughout the day” on Thursday at Diddy’s request. As Oseary noted: “After speaking with @nickcannon yesterday throughout the day on the recommendation of my brother Sean Combs, my commitment to the conversation is more resolute than ever. We have work to do. We can only get there if we listen to one another with compassion.
Oseary emphasized “fostering a strong connection between Jewish and Black communities has always been important to me,” adding, “This is an essential relationship between people who understand the pain of oppression and should work in solidarity to see justice and equality realized.”
