N.O.R.E. Apologizes for Kanye ‘George Floyd’ Comments, May Pull Episode

N.O.R.E. called “The Breakfast Club” on Monday morning to apologize multiple times for the comments Kanye West made about George Floyd on the latest episode of “Drink Champs” his team put out over the weekend.

N.O.R.E. says he later checked Kanye for the GF and “White Lives Matter” remarks later in the interview … but says he was too drunk to make an impactful moment. He also claimed that he uploaded the wrong edit and didn’t go through it properly… something he claims the team will rectify in the future.

The veteran rapper shamelessly admitted he didn’t want Ye to walk out of the interview if he was silenced … a la “The Breakfast Club’s” infamous Birdman interview where he cursed them out and demanded “Respek. “

BC also grilled N.O.R.E. on why he conducted the interview to start … citing Tucker Carlson and HBO’s ‘The Shop’s recent debacles.

N.O.R.E. says he previously spoke to Kanye that he would go on record to denounce Ye’s comments and apologized to Stephen Jackson … who may have cooked him anonymously on Instagram while slamming Ye.
