Waka Flocka Flame Cancels Oklahoma Show Over Race Row

  • 10 March 2015

Rapper Waka Flocka Flame has scrapped an upcoming University of Oklahoma gig over the school's new race controversy.

Footage of members of the university's Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity singing a racist chant in unison appeared online over the weekend (07-08Mar15), prompting school officials to sever "all affiliations" with the student group.

But that hasn't been enough for Flame, who has cancelled a scheduled show on campus.

Announcing his decision on Instagram.com, he writes, "I must say I'm disgusted and disappointed in the actions of the Sae fraternity at University of Oklahoma and I will be canceling my scheduled performance for them next month. Racism is something I will not tolerate.

"I'm all about... white, black and brown people… all races partying having a good time and enjoying themselves together peacefully... We can't change history but we damn sure can create our own future."
