Andrew Tate On “Drink Champs”: N.O.R.E. Faces Backlash For Extending Invite To Podcaster

by

Since its 2016 inception, Drink Champs hosts N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN have interviewed a slew of incredible guests, including Pusha T, Amber Rose, and Irv Gotti. While the show is primarily about conversing with figures who have had a significant impact on the culture and giving them their flowers, sometimes they choose to deviate from the norm. Unfortunately, it seems Noreaga’s most recent attempt to do just that earned him some serious hate online.

In wake of Andrew Tate’s release from Romanian jail last week, the 45-year-old hopped on Twitter to suggest that he make an appearance on Drink Champs. “Do we want [him] on [the show]?” N.O.R.E. asked his followers on Friday (March 31) evening. Before long, countless replies clowning the very notion of the controversial figure sitting down with DJ EFN and his co-host. “The weakness that has,” one meme-reply reads. “The stupidity that that has, the denial that that has. The exclusion that has, the impotence that that has, the absence that has. The restricted implications that has.”

N.O.R.E. Invites Embattled Entertainer on “Drink Champs”

While he’s no longer spending most of his time in a small cell, Tate is still on house arrest, leading B-boy Crazy Legs to question if an appearance on Drink Champs would qualify as “work release.” Many others made it known that they’re strongly opposed to the idea, writing, “Say April Fools, it’s ok to be an hour early,” and “Yeeeah the culture is done.” As the backlash has continued to pour in, N.O.R.E. made it known on Sunday (April 2), that he was only kidding when posting the initial inquiry.

In response to a post asking, “What does he even contribute to hip-hop, or people? #toxic #misogyny,” the “Oh No” rapper clarified, “I was joking!!” Even with this explanation, some are continuing to lash out at the media personality for even thinking of giving a platform to someone facing accusations of human trafficking, among other things.
