Talking about rapper/fashion designer, Kanye West, who is surrounded with strings of controversies over the years, Foxx stated he would not “speak ill of his brothers” which included the Donda rapper.
The Django Unchained star has worked with West on several hit songs which is why he would not want to think about him negatively.
Foxx points out that the media often focuses on the negative things going on in the world neglecting the positive side which is why the industry is delving into rancor.
Even though the 54-year-old Intuition star wants to look at the positive side, it is somewhat unacceptable to ignore the negative narrative when the world is aware of the wrongdoings happening in it.
West has been in the public eye since early October for making anti-semitic remarks on his social media platforms and further stating it in interviews. He chose to remain steadfast in his views which caused him further trouble in the industry.
The aftermath of his controversial statements resulted in the rapper losing several brand collaborations along with the criticisms he faced from celebrities and people all across the world.
