In a long Instagram post, the rapper explained, “All races partying having a good time and enjoying themselves peacefully. That’s what Waka Flocka is all about. For that reason I must say I’m disgusted and disappointed in the actions of the SAE fraternity at University of Oklahoma and I will be canceling my scheduled performance for them next month. Racism is something I will not tolerate.”

The rapper went on to say, “I know for a fact the whole school and SAE don’t agree with those kids actions so I’m not madd at the whole #SAE just those disgusting kids!!!!!!”

The school has already severed ties with the fraternity and the frat house has been shuttered, and is considering additional disciplinary action against students.
