Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson told CNN Thursday that he would’ve taken a “little different approach” to the the rap-themed advertisement.

Carson’s campaign released a rap radio advertisement Thursday to attract African-American voters.

Carson was asked by CNN for his thoughts on the ad.

“Well, there are — there are people in the campaign who felt that that was a good way to do things. And, you know, they’re entitled to their opinions about such things,” Carson said.

“You know, I support, you know, them in doing that,” Carson continued. “But, you know, I probably would have taken a little different approach.”
