Kramer, Kramer, Kramer… During a stand-up show in 2006, the “Seinfeld” host went on a racial rampage, angrily harassing a black man in the audience. That was the end of his career, and he admitted that he was embarrassed after the show.

Lil Wayne, on the other hand, should have learned better. He drew a lot of flak for comparing Emmett Till’s assassination to modern-day sexagenarians. Future’s “Karate Chop” remix includes the lyric “beat the p***y like Emmett Till,” which refers to a young black man killed in 1955 for reportedly whistling at a white woman. I’m sorry. WHY is this the case? Why would he do such a thing? It’s an entire offensive line. He apologized profusely and vowed not to play the single again and get it banned from the airwaves. My, my goodness.
