Lord Jamar of the group, Brand Nubian, sent a few jabs in Kanye West's direction on Twitter recently over Kanye choosing to rock a leather skirt at the 12/12/12 Benefit Concert. Lord Jamar posted a picture on his Instagram and Twitter accounts, of a male model wearing a very colorful and lengthy skirt with a suit jacket over it at a fashion show recently with the caption:
"Y'all Cee where the Kanye sh*t is takin us right? #halfafag," LJ posted onto Twitter January 26th."
He later hit up SOHH to further defend the jabs he sent at Kanye, stating that he isn't down with men trying to rock skirts and be a part of hip-hop.
"First of all, it's not just jabs at Kanye West. It's anybody promoting the feminization -- of the Black man in hip-hop culture. Anybody that I see out there, rocking dresses and all of that type of sh*t, I might shoot a jab at. But Kanye is one of the ones right now that's representing that movement. He's one of the first ones that you see in a skirt. Now you got other people following suit and rocking full-out dresses or they're trying to rock kilts. We're not Irish. We're not Europeans. Rocking kilts and all that is just another excuse to introduce that skirt style. You understand what I'm saying? And I'm not with it. This has nothing to do with sexuality, who they choose to be with and all that, I'm not even talking about that. I'm talking specifically about, what is hip-hop? And that's not hip-hop. Rocking dresses with mean faces, that's not hip-hop."
