The 46-year-old added to the Daily Telegraph: ‘I feel like a nation should never relegate anybody to the bottom and a nation should never stand on top of them and that’s what happening.

‘Keep your head up, do something creative, to me you are never poor when you are doing something creative. That is my thing.’

The rap star’s comments comes in the wake the recent booing controversy surrounding Sydney Swans player, Adam Goodes, who nearly retired due to consistent abuse whilst playing in the AFL.

Goodes received harsh booing in May during the AFL’s Indigenous round, by celebrating a goal with an Aboriginal war dance.

The innocent gesture caused a storm of controversy with commentators labelling the move inappropriate and threatening.

But Goodes said it was his way of showcasing his indigenous roots.

The two-time Brownlow medalist was also criticised for singling out a 13-year-old girl after she called him an ‘ape’ during a game in 2013.

After refusing to play for a short spell, the footballer returned to the AFL field in early August.
