Last night, RZA​'s full interview with Bloomberg aired on TV and the Wu-Tang Clanleader caught some serious heat for his comments on the police and the Black Lives Matter movement. While RZA said that he believes in the Black Lives Matter movement, he also said that all lives matter and that he stopped eating meat because cow lives matter too.

He also shared his thoughts on the police and how growing up he actually wanted to be a cop. "I love what the police do for our society, I love the idea of it, to serve and protect," RZA said. "Those who are upholding that idea, then they are beneficial to society. But those who lose that focus, whether they lose it through fear, through stress, or through not being properly trained—and they are allowed to go out on the streets—how can you enforce law if you don’t understand law?" RZA then said that he thinks young black youths need to take a look at the images that they portray. The long comment below has brought RZA the most amount of scrutiny since the interview aired.
