Selecting Kehlani to headline Cornell’s annual Slope Day “has injected division and discord” into the event, university president Michael I. Kotlikoff wrote in a letter.

Kehlani has been barred from a scheduled performance at Cornell University over the singer's pro-palestine comments and artistry.

Cornell University has canceled a performance by R&B star Kehlani after complaints to the Ivy League school's president that she expressed antisemitic and anti-Israel sentiments. Kehlani was scheduled to perform next month as the headliner at an annual celebration at the upstate New York school called Slope Day.
