As it turns out, Brown had a point of contention with Kim Kardashian wearing revealing apparel despite being married at the time to Kanye West. The former number one pick said that he’d leave the popular supermodel if he were in Ye’s position.

In addition, Brown opposed the idea of Kevin Hart wearing a dress in an SNL sketch a few years ago. According to Brown, Hart didn’t have to do that with all the money he has in the bank.

The former Los Angeles Lakers player is not the first person to criticize Kanye West. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was very vocal about West’s antics on social media and the former NBA champion tagged West as an attention-seeking person.
