India.Arie has weighed in on the ongoing controversy surrounding Joe Rogan after he issued an apology for repeatedly using the N-word on his podcast over the years.

The Grammy winner said she was taking the opportunity to clear some things up in a lengthy video statement she posted to Instagram on Wednesday. (Watch her full response here .)

Last week, the singer helped shed light on Rogans frequent use of racist language when she shared a disturbing video compilation of him using the N-word on numerous occasions on his show, The Joe Rogan Experience, which now streams exclusively on Spotify.

She cited his language to illustrate why she recently requested to pull her music and podcast from the streaming platform.

Arie clarified in her Wednesday video statement that she wasnt trying to attack anyone when she shared the compilation but instead was standing up for myself.

She said she thought Rogan did well with his apology, though she viewed some parts of it as disingenuous.

Because everyone on the planet knows that that word is loaded, she said, adding that she thought the podcaster was at best trying to be edgy.

The singer also argued that she doesnt believe in cancel culture and that if Rogan left Spotify he could very well land at another streaming platform.

She clarified that she never called Rogan a racist and that she simply chose not to associate with Spotify after seeing the video compilation.
