Nick Cannon Shares Thoughts on Cancel Culture & How He Keeps Himself Centered - Listen Now

Nick Cannon is sharing his thoughts on today’s climate and how he keeps himself centered amid people “talking sh-t” about him.

The 41-year-old entertainer opened up while appearing on a new episode of the Spout Podcast, which is streaming now.

Nick was asked how he keeps himself centered when things are either going great or going bad.

“The hustle, just like you said, the constant drive to keep going,” Nick said. “If you let any of that noise slow you down or stop you, you are on the wrong frequency. Like you got it, like that slowdown, stuck in the mud, low-frequency energy that I try to avoid. I’m aware of it, but you know there's a low frequency below you, but you just got to get to the highest frequency and the way you get to that frequency is just don’t stop, keep pushing, stay motivated, keep moving.”

Nick also commented on cancel culture in today’s climate.

He said, “All hail Dave Chappelle, you know what I mean? Like, the people who are fearless. I mean, as someone who has definitely had my brush many times with, you know, canceled culture and, you know, been on multiple sides of different debates, you know what I mean? When you get to what you can’t say and what’;s insensitive and one thing I value and I mean I’ve tried to share this story and just I can’t… I think they will pick it up, you know, in retrospect but Wild ‘N Out is the most progressive show on television and has been for over a decade, for almost two. And I say that just to say because when you think about it there’s no other place on television where you can have people from completely different walks of life say the most harsh, outrageous, unapologetic stuff to each other. Like we literally will have someone from the transgender community battle rap someone who was homophobic and just watch it happen, but at the end of the day they hug it out. You know what I mean? Or you could watch someone from, you know, make a Middle Eastern joke to someone who’s not even Middle Eastern, who’s Indian. You know what I mean? It’s ignorant in the sense, but it’s like, oh, we all say that, you know.”
