Kanye West continues to rile up critics with his offensive comments. The controversial rapper has refused to back down as he recently accused several NBA stars and celebrities, including Shaquille O’Neal, of being controlled by the mainstream media. While Shaq has not responded to West’s recent comments, the Los Angeles Lakers legend used sympathetic words from veteran actress Jennifer Lewis to leave Kanye West fans emotional.

The four-time NBA champ recently shared a reel featuring Lewis, who is popularly known for her memoir ‘The Mother of Black Hollywood.’ Jennifer Lewis recently made an appearance on Hollywood Unlocked, where she urged Kanye West to hush up and get some help.
