"I dont know if I properly apologized for how that slave comment made people feel so I want to take this moment to say I;m sorry for hurting, I'm sorry for the one-two affect of the maga hat into the slave comment and I'm sorry for people who feel let down for that movement and I also appreciate you guys for giving me to opportunity to talk to you, the one thing I got from the TMZ comment is how much Black people love me"
