Remember a few years ago when Jay Z and civil rights champion Harry Belafonte were beefing about philanthropy and celebrity activism? Jay Z addressed Belfonte's critique more extensively in a July 2013 interview with Rap Radar founder Elliott Wilson, and again in an August 2013 interview with HBO's Bill Maher. In a recent interview with The Laura Flanders Show, famous black scholar Cornel West briefly revisited that clash between a hip-hop mogul and a civil rights pioneer. West revealed that he, Belafonte, Jay Z, and Lupe Fiasco all eventually gathered together to resolve the generational tension between Belafonte and Jay. When host Laura Holmes asked whether he and Belafonte "had words" with Jay Z, Dr. West answered, "Oh, we did, we did?we had some wonderful words. Lupe Fiasco was there as well."
