Brand Nubian's Lord Jamar posted criticisms of "skirts" in hip-hop and of Kanye West on Instagram this weekend. Posting a photo of a man wearing a skirt at a fashion show, Jamar stated, "Y'all Cee where the Kanye sh*t is takin us right? #halfaf*g."

The veteran rapper didn't back off of his comments when asked about the posting.

"First of all, it's not just jabs at Kanye West," Jamar told SOHH. "It's anybody promoting the feminization -- of the Black man in hip-hop culture. Anybody that I see out there, rocking dresses and all of that type of sh*t, I might shoot a jab at. But Kanye is one of the ones right now that's representing that movement. He's one of the first ones that you see in a skirt. Now you got other people following suit and rocking full-out dresses or they're trying to rock kilts. We're not Irish. We're not Europeans. Rocking kilts and all that is just another excuse to introduce that skirt style. You understand what I'm saying? And I'm not with it. This has nothing to do with sexuality, who they choose to be with and all that, I'm not even talking about that. I'm talking specifically about, what is hip-hop? And that's not hip-hop. Rocking dresses with mean faces, that's not hip-hop."
