White made outrageous remarks about the Asian community and China Mac was understandably upset. Akademiks says he's not involved.

A week after Math Hoffa called out Charleston White for the disgusting remarks about the podcaster's daughters, more news about the controversial social media star was shared. White is a polarizing figure in the online community. He's often seen targeting celebrities, particularly in Hip Hop culture, and sharing scathing hot takes about their personal lives. Additionally, he's known for antagonizing people with questionable relationships with the law. If they retaliate or make verbal threats, White calls the police and reports them.

Things have intensified after White dropped off another video, this time targeting the Asian community. He called for Asian women to be sexually assaulted "brutally" as he specifically disparaged all things associated with Chinese people. The remarks were damning, and it was no surprise that White received backlash over them. China Mac, a rapper and ex-gang member, responded with a reaction that has ignited an online beef. Mac wants to see White face-to-face.

China Mac Responds To Charleson White

"Let me make this very clear, Charleston White don't speak for all Black people," China Mac said in a response video. "He don't! This ain't a Black and Asian thing. This is a Charleston White thing, so we gon' keep it on Charleston White. Charleston White, you a b*tch, right? You also got a lotta foul stuff to say about my people, and we gon' hold you accountable for that. Facts."

Mac then mentioned an upcoming live show DJ Akademiks reportedly put together. He was said to have booked White. "April 30, you gon' be in New York City, right? You got a show at the Gramercy Theater with Akademiks, right?" Mac further questioned. "Akademiks, you stand by this, bro? Are you consigning this? You consigning this, this racism, this rhetoric, this bullsh*t? Are you consigning that? 'Cause inquiring minds wanna know, bro. Gramercy Theater, right? April 30, right? Say less."

Akademiks Says He Isn't Involved

On Twitch, Akademiks also addressed the controversy. It's evident that he doesn't want anything to do with the back and forth, although he is in the middle. Also, in a video, White went off on Math Hoffa. In his rant, he additionally alleged he would sexually assault Hoffa's young daughters if given the opportunity. Hoffa responded as any father would, including delivering a message to Akademiks. It wasn't lost on the blogger.

However, it's now reported that the show was canceled by Live Nation following White's bigoted comments about the Asian community. No Jumper shared the information; in the comments, Wack 100 also wrote, "I SUPPORT THIS DECISION." Check it out above.
