Nick Cannon Wild `N Out The Cannon!

ViacomCBS fires Nick Cannon for anti-Semitic remarks.
Nicholas Scott Cannon is an American actor, comedian, rapper, director, writer, producer, and television host. On television, Cannon began as a teenager on All That before going on to host The Nick Cannon Show, Wild 'N Out, America's Got Talent, Lip Sync Battle Shorties and The Masked Singer.

He also has a morning show on Los Angeles Power 106, 105.9 KPWR-FM.

He is the former husband of pop singer Mariah Carey. He is the father of three children with one on the way. Cannon is dating Brittany Bell. The two are expecting their second child soon. The entertainers children are Moroccan and Monroe, 9 from Mariah and son Golden, 3 from Brittany.

It won't be long before Nick Cannon loses his gig at The Masked Singer. The controversial media mogul was fired out the "cannon" at ViacomCBS Media.

On his YouTube podcast Cannon's Class, the entertainer made remarks about racial bias. He talked to Professor Griff of Public Enemy about the issues in the Black community.

Watch the full episode here. The video was pulled but you can get the infamous part.




The agitator made remarks during discussions on racial bias with Griff. In the 90-minute podcast, Cannon and Griff claimed that Black people were the true Hebrews and that Jews were the ones who usurped their identity.

The comments made executives at ViacomCBS angry. So they told MTV to have Cannon removed from the show Wild 'N Out.

The 40-year old made the remarks on his June 30 episode. Griff (born Richard Griffin) was booted from Public Enemy in the late 1980s after he made anti-Semitic remarks about the Jewish religion.

Griff has said that Jews "were responsible for the majority of the wickedness in the world." He has been roundly criticized for anti-Semitism.

Cannon also went into conspiracies about Jews billionaires and said anti-Semitic tropes. He was ranting about history "going as deep as the Rothschilds, centralized banking, the 13 families, the bloodlines that control everything even outside of America."
Wild 'N Out will carry on without Nick Cannon.
The two discussed the controversial racial ideology of the Black Hebrew Israelites -- claiming that "Semitic" people had nothing to do with being white and that the term "anti-Semitic" is only used to "divide people."

"You can't be anti-Semitic when we are the Semitic people. When we are the same people who they want to be. That's our birthright. We are the true Hebrews," Cannon said.

During the podcast, he went on the discussion of race. He described white people of the past as "savages" and "barbaric" because they lacked the "compassion" that comes with melanin or skin pigmentation.

"The people that don't have [melanin] -- I'm going to say this carefully -- are a little less..and where the term actually comes from...they may not have the compassion when they were sent to the mountains of Caucasus...the sun then started to deteriorate them so then, they're acting out of fear, they're acting out of low self-esteem, they're acting out of a deficiency."

Cannon added, "So therefore, the only way that they can act is evil. They have to rob, steal, rape, kill in order to survive. So then these people that didn't have what we have -- and when I say we, I speak of the melanated people -- they had to be savages. They had to be barbaric because they're in these Nordic environments.... They're acting as animals so they're the ones that are actually closer to animals. They're the ones that are actually the true savages."

Cannon's cannon firing came quickly. Even he didn't see it coming. He defend himself and said that ViacomCBS had been on the "wrong side of history" and he wanted to take full control of Wild 'N Out.

He said that the network has been oppressive and that the racist infrastructure continues to exist even in the entertainment industry.



Shari Redstone is the top-chairwoman at ViacomCBS. She is Jewish and very passionate about civil rights for all people. She must of found Cannon's comments insensitive and told the MTV folks to send Cannon the pink slip.

Cannon found himself the butt of ridicule last year when he tangled with Eminem.

Eminem is one of the world's greatest rappers. He is the only white rapper to succeed in a genre that is mostly suited to African American culture.

Cannon said of Em being "Elvis on Crack" and threatening to come at him after he made a series of rap disses aimed at Mariah Carey. He said that Em didn't want that smoke.

Em went on Fat Joe and Dre's album to respond to the attack. Em called Nick "soft" and called his Blacktivism is a farce. He said that

Cannon released a handful of disses and used the Foolish Pride lyrics to call Em a racist.
