Jack Harlow Asks Fans To Find Police Officer Who Grabbed Female Fan By The Neck

The officer grabbed the Black woman by the neck after she explained that she was simply trying to get to Harlow's concert.


Louisville-based rapper Jack Harlow is looking for help identifying a police officer who grabbed one of his female fans by the neck as she was trying to make her way into his concert. The 23-year-old recording artist shared a viral video of his fan being confronted by two officers before one of them grabbed her by the neck, calling the incident "sickening."


"This video came to my attention a few hours ago," said the superstar rapper. "When I watched it I was disgusted by that cop and all I wanted to do was make something good happen for this girl immediately...I told the world to help me identify her so I could find a way to give her a hug and give her as many tickets to as many shows as she wants. But that’s not enough and its not a solution to a systemic issue that people who don’t look like me have to face. The next step is identifying this police officer and getting him unemployed as fast as we can. Assaulting a young woman and putting his hands on her neck is sickening. I look out in the crowd every night and see black women in my front row...screaming my lyrics, traveling to see me, supporting me, riding for me. I want this woman, and every black woman that supports me to know - I am so sorry. I want you to be protected and I want this guy to lose his job so fucking fast. I love you. Let’s find this officer."

A very commendable move by Jack. Recently, the artist has been more open about his role as a white man in hip-hop, saying in an interview that he doesn't want to do a "white version of the art form." He claims that he raps from the heart and has "serious imposter syndrome" at times and tries not to be a "novelty" in rap.
