Colin Kaepernick voiced his support for rappers Big Sean and YG, who called out EA Sports again for omitting a reference to the quarterback in the Madden 19 soundtrack.
Kaepernick is referred to in YG's song "Big Bank," which features Big Sean, 2 Chainz, and Nicki Minaj, but the video game company originally censored the mention. After several people criticized EA Sports for excluding the Kaepernick reference, the company released a statement apologizing for the error and will include it after their August 6 update.

"They can't stop us, they ain't gonna censor us, they ain't gonna take no lyrics out of no songs. We say what we mean and mean what we say," Big Sean said during his concert Sunday.
EA Sports does not have the rights to include Kaepernick in this year's version of Madden.
