Rapper Jack Harlow Accuses Cop Of Assaulting Black Woman, Posts Footage Of Officer Grabbing Woman By The Neck: I Want Him To Lose His F*cking Job! [WATCH]

Jack Harlow wants to do his part by helping his black fans.

Louisville rapper Jack Harlow, 23, responded to a video of a young woman having a rough encounter with two policemen. The video shows a woman–who appears to be of black descent–standing outside near a line set aside for a venue. Clearly distressed, she shouts:

“…[y’all are acting like I’m] doing something bad…all I wanted to f*****g do was go to the f*****g–STOP! All I wanted to do was go to the Jack Harlow concert…no, y’all are acting like I’m doing something bad!”

One of the officers repeatedly pointed his index finger in the fan’s face and grabbed her by the neck.

Jack Harlow reposted the video and captioned it:

“This video came to my attention a few hours ago. When I watched it I was disgusted by that cop and all I wanted to do was make something good happen for this girl immediately…I told the world to help me identify her so I could find a way to give her a hug and give her as many tickets to as many shows as she wants. But that’s not enough and its not a solution to a systemic issue that people who don’t look like me have to face.”

He continued:

“The next step is identifying this police officer and getting him unemployed as fast as we can. Assaulting a young woman and putting his hands on her neck is sickening.”

He added:

“I look out in the crowd every night and see black women in my front row…screaming my lyrics, traveling to see me, supporting me, riding for me. I want this woman, and every black woman that supports me to know – I am so sorry.”

He concluded:

“I want you to be protected and I want this guy to lose his job so fucking fast. I love you. Let’s find this officer.”

Harlow has been vocal about his support for Black Lives Matter. In 2020, he returned to his hometown to attend a protest for the murder of Breonna Taylor.

He has also shown himself to be socially aware, stating that he’ll never truly understand racism. He told XXL:

“I grew up surrounded by Black people and they would tell me about their experience, but being a White person, there’s no way I can truly feel it,”

He continued:

“I can know it’s there, but I can never truly know what it’s like and know how real it is. And I think that’s given me a certain responsibility because there’s a lot of White people out here that deny the reality of it. If anything, I try to listen more than speak.”

The “What’s Poppin'” rapper started honing his craft at 12-years-old. His career took off around 2018 after he relocated to Atlanta, Georgia. Since then, his songs have skyrocketed on the Tik Tok platform. This past summer, he was featured on rap-

singer Lil Nas X’s “Industry Baby,” which held the top spot on the Billboard’s Hot 100.
