Overview
- Video published by TMZ shows Talib Kweli yelling at security backstage after Black Star's Nov. 15 show at O2 Apollo Manchester.
- Kweli says security walked onstage at exactly 11 p.m. as the duo was finishing, leading to the confrontation captured on camera.
- He claims the venue pushed the start from 9:00 to 9:15 p.m. without consulting the group, bringing the show up against the curfew.
- Kweli alleges the treatment was disrespectful and says it would not have happened to a white artist, calling for an apology to the group, its team, and fans.
- Complex reported seeking comment from the venue, and coverage did not include a venue apology or detailed rebuttal; earlier on the tour, a London crowd booed over a late start.
