Charleston White, a controversial internet personality and comedian, recently made headlines when his sold-out comedy show in Houston was canceled, and he blamed James Prince, the CEO of Rap-A-Lot Records, for it. He also claimed that Houston police refused to provide him protection over his ongoing feud with Prince.
The feud between Charleston White and James Prince dates back to late 2020 when White made some derogatory comments about Prince’s son on social media. Prince, a powerful figure in the music industry, took offense to White’s remarks and responded by calling him out in a video that went viral.
Since then, White and Prince have been engaged in a bitter online feud, with White accusing Prince of being a “bully” and Prince dismissing White as a “clout chaser.”
The situation escalated when White announced that he would be performing in Houston, which is Prince’s hometown. The show was reportedly sold out, but it was abruptly canceled at the last minute, with White claiming that Prince had used his influence to have it shut down.
White took to social media to express his frustration, accusing Prince of trying to silence him and prevent him from making a living. He also claimed that Houston police had refused to provide him protection, citing the ongoing feud with Prince as the reason.
“It’s done been confirmed. James Prince runs Houston. The Mayor and the Houston Police Department say that they are getting calls that Charleston White is gonna be speaking at an event. Houston Police Department sounds like a bunch of p###### to me,” Charleston White snapped.
“I see why Rap-A-Lot runs that s###. No wonder they Mob Ties. No wonder everybody got to check in y’all. Now I’m checking in with the police department. The police department told me, ‘hey, man, you got a problem with Mr. James Prince. We don’t want no problems. The mayor’s office called and say, ‘hey, Mr. Charleston, we hear you got a problem with James Prince. Man, we scared of him.’ I swear to God, yall. I just got the call from the Houston Mayor’s office and the gang unit Police Department in Houston, Texas. They are scardified of Rap-A-Lot.”
This situation has sparked a debate about free speech and the responsibility of public figures to use their influence for good. Some have argued that Prince, as a powerful figure in the music industry, has a duty to speak out against those who use their platforms to spread hate and negativity.
Others, however, have defended White’s right to express his opinions, no matter how controversial or offensive they may be. They argue that canceling his show and denying him police protection sets a dangerous precedent for free speech and the ability of individuals to make a living without fear of retribution.
Regardless of one’s position on the matter, it is clear that the feud between Charleston White and James Prince has sparked a larger conversation about the role of public figures in shaping public discourse and the need to balance freedom of speech with the responsibility to promote positivity and respect. It remains to be seen how this situation will be resolved and whether either party will take steps to de-escalate the conflict and move forward in a more productive manner.
