Jay-Z Says America Is Way More Sexist Than It Is Racist

Rapper and music streaming mogul Jay Z paused his concert in Cleveland on Sunday night to warn a 9-year-old audience member that even though “America is way more sexist” than it is racist, she can still grow up to be president.

“You can be anything that you want to be when you grow up,” the Grammy-winner said. “And I’ll tell you something: At this very moment, America is way more sexist than they are racist. Now you, young lady, you got the potential to be the next president of the United States. You believe that. You understand?”
