Nick Cannon said his 2020 brush with cancellation over antisemitic remarks was a “growth moment” that he has since incorporated into a different attitude — with a podcast to prove it.
“I’m going to be super honest with you, man,” the performer and father of 12 told AllHipHop recentlys. “That process was a growth moment for me, on so many levels as a man.”
The host of “The Masked Singer” temporarily lost his “Wild ‘N Out” hosting gig with MTV over remarks he made while interviewing former Public Enemy member Professor Griff — real name Richard Griffin — for his “Cannon’s Class” podcast in July 2020. (Work on Cannon’s daytime talk show was also delayed until 2021, though that show lasted only one season.)
