Rapper Danny Brown received oral sex ‘without his consent’ on stage during a concert in Minneapolis, April 26.
Danny Brown has come under fire for an incident that occurred at his April 26 tour stop in Minneapolis, in which a female fan rushed the stage and performed oral sex on the "XXX" rapper.
According to reports, the experimental hip-hop artist was in the middle of a song when the unidentified woman came up and pulled his pants down.
Brown, 32, is on tour with fellow rapper Kitty Pryde. On Wednesday she penned an angry letter about the incident, expressing her outrage at what she considered sexual assault.

Rapper Kitty Pryde expressed her outrage at the ‘sexual assault,’ penning an open letter to describe the implications of what happened.
"I'm mad that a person thought it was okay to pull another person's pants down during their performance in front of about 700 other people," Pryde, whose real name is Kathryn Beckwith, wrote.
"I'm mad that a person thought it was a good idea to perform a sex act on another person without their consent. I'm mad that nobody made her leave. I'm mad that Danny had to actually wonder what he was supposed to do at that point."
Pryde goes on to express her anger about the double standard of sexual assault towards males, adding - as a white woman herself - that a reaction from Brown towards the girl would have had racial implications because she was white as well.

Brown, 32, is known for his highly sexualized lyrics, and has scores of female fans offering him sexual favors on Twitter often.
"It's obvious that the reason nobody cares is because a girl did it to a boy," she wrote.
"Everyone wants the option of blaming it on Danny, because people can't accept the fact that a white girl raped a black dude in front of a bunch of people."
Pryde goes on to draw comparisons to famed novel “To Kill A Mockingbird,” and address the problems with how the hip-hop community perceives sex. Pushing the girl off would have brought on “attacks on his masculinity” from other rappers, she said.

Kendrick Lamar asks Danny Brown if a fan performed a sexual act on him while he was on stage.
Brown supposedly kept on singing throughout the ordeal. Rapper Kendrick Lamar incredulously tweeted to him, asking if the rumors were true.
"U really just got the h--- on stage stanny???" Lamar tweeted.
According to some reports, Brown responded saying he "didn't miss one bar" but later deleted the tweet, refraining from directly addressing the incident, and instead retweeting fan reaction and links to Kitty Pryde's lengthy letter.
