‘Worry about your own business’ – Shaquille O’Neal Lashed Back at Kanye West Over Anti Semitism Row
Kanye West has added NBA players to the pot of controversies. The expressive artist is currently on a roll, adding different celebrities to his list of criticism. While he was always known for his control more than his music, the singer’s anti-Semitic comments became unavoidably offensive in recent times.
On the other hand, NBA player Shaquille O’Neal, also known as Shaq, has always stood his ground on respecting all religions. Now, West has continued his barrage on the Jewish community, and during one such incident, he talked about reading the fine print. As an example, he mentioned O’Neal’s deal with Jamie Salter. That clearly did not sit well with the former NBA player, who has now given a rather spicy response.

The first half of the sentence may or may not be true, since West’s billionaire status remains in the dark. But this is the sports analyst’s second instance in recent times in regard to the topic of Semitism.
It all began when NBA player Kyrie Irving promoted a documentary over twitter that had anti-Semitic undertones to it. The player was penalized by being dropped in five matches by the NBA. On the topic, O’Neal criticized him and said, “It hurts me when we have to sit up here and talk about stuff that divides the game. Now, we got to answer for what that idiot has done.”
