Fabolous, an American rapper, provoked outrage on social media after saying that his images were of poor quality due to bad wifi in Kenya, Africa.
When one person mocked him, the rapper released photographs and videos from his trip to New York.
"Whose Android took these?" a fan inquired.
Fabolous said, "Could be my WiFi, I am in Africa right now lol."
Kenyans reacted angrily to his remark, accusing him of looking down on Africa.
Did you read this?
The rapper was told that Kenya had welcomed him with open arms and that he owed his fans some respect.
Here are some thoughts:
"Funny how blacks themselves despise their own history and origin, then blame whites for racism, when they are also hating on themselves🤦♀️."
"WiFi in Kenya happens to be the BEST in Africa…also please name the country..Africa is a continent 🙄🤦🏾♂️."
"The day people will realize that Black Americans believe they are superior to other black people especially Africans you’ll stop bringing artists who’s songs we don’t even remember here . The fact that he didn’t even say Kenya like Africa is one country is so disrespectful. Also he’s not aware we have one of the fastest wifi networks?? Androids 😭😭😭😭 ??? Take this man back to his country bana."
On arrival, Fabolous said he was honoured to be in the country and was impressed by the reception he got.
Responding to a comment about the photos, he said the response to the fan was a joke and he was not trying to be disrespectful.
