Kanye West Blasts US Fashion Store For Racism As Pal Jay Z Is Pressured To ...

Kanye West has shared his views on the race row currently engulfing US store Barneys, accusing them of 'rich n***a racism'.
The New York City branch of the store hit headlines across the pond when two black customers were detained by cops after they made a string of expensive purchases, leading to accusations of racial profiling.
The scandal has led to calls for Jay Z to withdraw his fashion line from the store, and the 'Empire State Of Mind' rapper has said he will wait to see the full facts before making any decisions.

According to AllHipHop.com, he ranted: 'That's that broke n***a racism. Don't touch anything in the store. Excuse me that's that, 'can I help you sir?' That's that racial profiling out in front of Barneys and s**t.

Kanye has otherwise been in a positive mood recently, after he proposed to girlfriend Kim Kardashian a week ago today, on her 33rd birthday.
The couple already have one child together, baby girl North West, who was born in June. Her birth was documented in the latest episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which are currently showing in the US.
