Machine Gun Kelly is under fire for an offensive sexual comment about black women in a resurfaced clip, before calling another woman a “bitch” as she walks off offended.
Machine Gun Kelly has come under fire after a resurfaced clip shows him making offensive sexual comments about black women after being asked if black or white women are better at oral sex.
Canadian singer and former lead singer of the electronic group Crystal Castles Alice Glass shared a clip of the 31-year-old rapper making a comment on the red carpet of the 2012 BET Awards, saying it was “disrespectful and fetishizing of black women.”
In the caption, she wrote: “I’m sorry I have to warn about this.” This mgk video is disturbing.”
Interview: Machine Gun Kelly came under fire after a clip surfaced showing him making offensive sexual comments about black women in 2012.
In Machine Gun’s video, Kelly states that “black girls give the best sex” before calling an off-screen woman a “bitch” after she leaves because of his comments.
He says in full, “That’s what it is, you give the best dick or you say you don’t give the dick. But white girls they just fuck. You just have to show your skills because black girls give the best sex.”
Then he gets annoyed that the woman standing behind the interviewer walks away from him while he is talking and says, “Fuck, then you leave, you dirty pig, bitch, ugh, with her fake ass.” Louis Vuitton handbag! I’ll take care of this bitch.

Sharing the clip, Glass wrote, “Being a white person, would you ever say that? fetishize black women in such a disrespectful way!? show respect for the black women whose culture you are appropriating.
“Sorry about that @machinegunkelly, that was more than disgusting.”
Glass added: “But it’s not just about one artist. there is a big picture here. it is about the fact that men who behave in this way are still given power and opportunity in an industry that deliberately perpetuates sexist, racist and offensive behavior. this must change.
