Now Savage has recanted his accusations, claiming he lied to Bambaataa about his age at the time...
From All Hip Hop
Savage recently conducted a lengthy interview with Chuck “Jigsaw” Creekmur, where he offered his view of the man he once accused of s_xually accosting him. What he says now is diametrically opposed to his previous assertions.
“Bambaataa is not a ped__hile and, in my eyes, he was doing something that was consensual with someone that he thought was of age,” he said. “I wish, back in 2016, I remembered about the fake ID. I wasn’t thinking about that I had forgot about that I was in deep depression and still dealing with the trauma as an adult. I want to apologize for the little kid that didn’t know anybody and just wanted to be down with this thing called Hip-Hop so I pretended to be older.
“This is something that took place 35 to over 40 years ago. This man has never been convicted of anything. Let it go. I needed to set the record straight [and get] my closure.
Savage also said that he hoped the showing would also positively impact the world.
“I just hope this brings healing to people around the world,” he said. “If I can have forgiveness and healing so can you.”
