Rapper Wale alleged late Sunday that American Airlines crew told him "he didn't belong in the first class" and they will call the police. The rapper and recording artist, whose original name is Olubowale Victor Akintimehin, made the accusation on Twitter while writing about a flight delay.

"Lmao stuck on the runway AGAIN. I bet it sound like I’m wellin.. nope half n hour an counting," Wale's first tweet read. After a series of posts, American Airlines responded to the rapper writing: "We know you're ready to be in the air and we're so sorry for the wait. Looks like aircraft maintenance. We'll have you in the air soon."
