The University of South Carolina apologized for the “disrespectful” use of a song by the deceased musician Camoflauge during the 66-56 victory of the Gamecocks No. 2 on No. 5 LSU on Friday.
Camoflauge, born Jason Johnson, is the late father of the current star of Lsu Flau'jae Johnson. He was killed while walking his little son in Savannah six months before Flau'jae was born in 2003.
DJ, who acts during the Gamecocks female basketball games in Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, performed the song of Camoflauge, 'Cut Friends', at the end of the fourth quarter of the confrontation of the fundamental sec. As a result, South Carolina has suspended DJ for the next game at the Gamecocks house.
“His actions were understandably annoying for Flau'jae Johnson and his family and disrespectful for the program and fans of LSU,” said South Carolina in a statement on DJ to 'The rivalries of the conference and the passionate bases of fans only They should serve to improve sports, not be used. Personally go to individual players. We regret that it has come to that in our place after a game that saw both teams capture the level of national care that female basketball has won. ''
Johnson's pain about the situation was exacerbated after Friday's game when he met a frivolous comment on the Instagram incident.
After a commentator wrote “Playing camouflage (sic) at the end of the game was crazy”, the DJ replied with a risoteant emoji and the sarcastic response: “My Bad.”

DJ to give a different tone while apologizing in X later.
“I apologize for playing instrumental Cut Friends in the game yesterday,” he wrote. 'It is never my intention to disrespect anyone or offend anyone when my work is to have fun and make sure that other people have a good time. I am from the Lowcountry/C-Port area, so I've been playing for years, even … in other games, but I shouldn't have played it in yesterday's game. I play it in each radio station that I have done in NC, GA and SC and grew in Camoflauge, so it never reproduces with bad intention or as a joke. I can't control how someone takes it, but I can assume responsibility and … apologize.
The loss of Friday was the first of the LSU season. Johnson fought during the game, scoring only 13 points after averaging almost 20 per game for the season. Since then, the Tigers have responded with a 64-51 blow from Texas A&M and now go to another key confrontation with Oklahoma on Thursday.
The camouflage had a prolific section from 1999 to 2002, launching four albums and several mixing tapes, many of which was well received.
