Rapper cancels University of Oklahoma show after racist chant video leaks online

The Atlanta rapper will not be performing at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity.

American rapper Waka Flocka has cancelled his performance at the University of Oklahoma's Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity after a racist video from its members leaked online.

In the video members of the fraternity can be heard singing "you can hang him from a tree, but he can never sign with me. There will never be a n------ in S-A-E."

The 28 year old rapper took to his Instagram page to cancel his performance with the fraternity and to denounce the act of racism.

"I know for a fact the whole school and SAE don't agree with those kids actions. So know that I'm not mad at the whole #SAE just those disgusting kids. We can't change history but we damn sure can create our own future #DeathToRacism" he wrote under the caption of his Instagram post.
