Michael Jordan is crying foul on N.O.R.E.'s claims that he hates hip hop.
While appearing on a podcast, the rapper told the story of the NBA legend attending a Def Jam Christmas party and refusing to speak to the rappers lined up to see him, quoting MJ as saying, "fuck rap."
Jordan's rep says that this story is untrue, according to TMZ Sports.
"MJ wasn’t at this party, doesn’t know N.O.R.E., and is a fan of ALL music," explained Estee Portnoy to TMZ Sports.
"Drake is in his brand, and Nelly is a partner of his with the Charlotte Hornets."
There you have it.
