Memphis Jelks praises the controversial icon and Cosby reportedly shared a statement about appearing in the visual.
In his first months out of prison, Bill Cosby has gotten a lot on his hands. The industry hasn’t been unanimous in its support for the veteran entertainer who was previously convicted on charges related to sexual assault, and once it was learned that the conviction was overturned due to a technicality, Cosby was a free man.
He has long disputed the allegations against him after dozens of women came forward with the accusatory stories, some going as far back 35 years. There have been rumors that the 84-year-old actor will embark on a comedy tour or continue with speaking arrangements, and on Thursday (August 5), it was reported that Cosby planned on making an appearance in a Rap video.
Rapper Memphis Jelks released his single “The Cosby Dance” which samples The Cosby Show’s theme song and on the track, Jelks praises the comedian. Jelks is taking his turn at creating a viral dance song, and while it remains to be seen if the public turns it into a wave, reports state Cosby plans on showing face in the music video.
Memphis Jelks continued to laud Cosby when he spoke with the outlet.
