Twitter Comes Down on Jay Z for Working With "Racist" Barneys

Jay Z is set to release a holiday collection with Barneys and fans are not happy to hear that he's still working with the retailer after the recent racial profiling and arrest of a young black student who purchased a Ferragamo belt.

 
 
Reports Vlad:
 
Trayon Christian, 19, was detained by two undercover officers after buying the pricey accessory at the flagship store on Madison Avenue earlier this week.  
Fans began flooding Twitter with messages of shock over the Brooklyn rapper's affiliation with the company after the incident. One Twitter user by the name of @1ShadeofBlack wrote, "Jay Z is about to launch a clothing & jewelry line at Barneys. Will Blue Ivy be racially profilled when she purchases her 1st designer bag?"
