Al Sharpton Says He’s “Flattered” By JAY-Z’s 4:44 Mention
“Al Sharpton in the mirror takin’ selfies/ How is him or Pill Cosby s’posed to help me?” JAY-Z raps on “Family Feud.”
JAY-Z aired out a lot of personal business on 4:44, but he also addressed peers and public figures alike. One of the more surprising call-outs referenced the recent internet phenomenon of Al Sharpton's workout selfies. "Al Sharpton in the mirror takin’ selfies/ How is him or Pill Cosby s’posed to help me?" JAY-Z raps on "Family Feud."
Sharpton isn't bothered by the reference at all, as he told TMZ in a reccent in interview. "For a 62-year-old man to go viral 'cause he's on his way to work out — it's flattering," Sharpton said, adding that he's a "big fan" of the Brooklyn rapper. Watch Sharpton's response above.
