From Hozier and Kneecap in Dublin to Greta Thunberg and Arab Barghouti in London, the tour drew high-profile support for Palestinian rights and humanitarian relief
I have been a staunch defender for years. He is the epitome of what people used to wishlist for their hiphop. In the culture. Self starter. Discussing actual issues. Pushing his producer up front. Independent.
His music isn’t very everyone for sure but he has some great radio hits and some really good introspective stuff, the back half of the heist is brilliant and the follow up was very self aware.
Yeah there is a lot said on this I guess, while he didn’t get as bleak a come up as ODB or Black Thought he has plenty of reasons to not ve positive and to not be successful so I dont begrudge him saring his message.
For which he immediately apologised, updated his website to include links to organisations that fight anti semitism and explained himself as best he could while not excusing it. He went on to say he only wanted respect put out into the world and mever meant for the three elements of the costume to do anything other than disguise him for a secret surprise show.
Quite interesting. I mean it depends on if you want to beleive him, but he says he just dressed up weird, not intending to be a stereotype. Here are some tweets and pictures regarding the performance, so that y’all can form your own opinion

On the right side of history
I mean, a lot of hip hop fans have some opinions about positive hip hop and the propensity for white guys to break out in that genre specifically.

Music that’s for everyone is music for no-one.
Disagree, there have been some incredible radio hits across pop culture. I understand the sentiment but I coukdnt hold it as an irrefutable truth.
He has made some creative choices with content, format, production and festures for the record.
Didn’t he co.e out on stage dressed as a Jewish stereotype? Not disagreeing with h bow but he is not a good guy.
He could’ve been an italian stereotype, but italians don’t tend to whine as much.
BADAbing, OOOH!

At least he apologized and gives shoutouts to Jews of conscience in his songs. So forgive me for not crucifying him.
