Rush: Racist Chant Would Be A Hit For Kanye

Rush
On Wednesday's radio show, Rush Limbaugh discussed the widely talked-about racist chant video sung by University of Oklahoma's SAE fraternity.

He argued that had Kanye West rapped the same words (which include racial slurs and reference lynching), it would become a hit.

His logic followed his mention of MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski being criticized on Twitter for suggesting that the fraternity members likely learned the N-word by listening to rap music.

"If this had been a song by Kim Kardashian's husband and they had sung this song at the Grammys...it'd be a hit," he said, and then added after a colleague disagreed, "But I'm telling you this stuff gets awards and the people who sing it are portrayed as American royalty in terms of celebrity. You can't deny that."
