Keith Sweat is standing firm on his recent comments about modern relationships and the roles women play within them—despite facing heavy backlash from critics labeling his views as outdated and “misogynistic.” The R&B legend took to Instagram to both reaffirm and clarify his stance, doing so with a bit of rhythm and reinforcement from none other than Kendrick Lamar. In a video post, Sweat is seen grooving to Kendrick’s “Peekaboo” from the GNX project, brushing off the criticism with a carefree caption. “We ain’t worried about nothin the haters gotta say,” he wrote. “Enjoy Life.” the post was a not-so-subtle response to growing criticism over remarks Sweat made during a recent live show, where he addressed what he perceives as a rising trend of “entitled” women who aren’t willing to contribute equally in relationships. “You got to bring something to the table to get something for me,” Sweat told the crowd in the now-viral clip. “I can’t help it. They don’t want to cook no more.” He continued, emphasizing his self-sufficiency: “I wash my own clothes, iron my own clothes. Gotta do something for me.” The clip sparked debate online, with many accusing the Harlem-born singer of unfairly stereotyping women. But Sweat returned to social media to clarify his perspective “Yall tripping I cook and clean and I don’t have too,” he wrote in the comments. “What’s the problem I said a lot of women don’t even do what I do.” He further explained, “If you don’t fall into that category why yall trippin still love yall anyway back to doing my dance.” In a follow-up message aimed at settling the dust, Sweat reiterated that his original comments were never meant as a blanket statement. “I didn’t say all I said a lot of women not all yall need listen lol,” he added.
