Rodriguez shared a video of herself rapping along to the Fugees song Ready or Not.

The word appears only once in the three-minutes- and-47-seconds-long song, yet its the sole focus of the video.

I just wanted to reach out and apologize, she said.

I love Lauryn Hill and I really am sorry if I offended you.

She doesnt mention the word specifically, and she doesnt directly address black people.

This video comes a few months after Rodriguez had a similar reaction to beingcalled anti-blackearlier in 2019.

So to get anti-black is saying that Im anti-family, she said on Sway in the Morning this January.

My father is dark-skinned, hes Afro-Latino …

If anything, the black community is my community.

Watching my own video playing back at me, has shaken me to my core.
