An article about #JackHarlow ‘s problematic verses from Japanese magazine. Translated w/ DeepL👉 https://mdpr.jp/k-enta/detail/4003192
“It is difficult to conclude that he consciously used "ABG" to disparage Asian women, but it would be more dangerous if it was "unconscious discrimination" by a person with a privileged identity as a white male. Jungkook himself does not seem to have been involved in writing the lyrics of the song.
Some fans have signed petitions and hashtag demonstrations demanding an apology and official statement from his label, BIGHIT MUSIC, and parent company HYBE, but no action has been taken yet by the producers.”
Thanks for highlighting this!
Anyone remember 2020?
Yoongi used a problematic snippet of Jim Jones in "What Do You Think".
After facing backlash, BH apologized, stating YG & producers didn't know why JJ is problematic, the track was rereleased without it.
In that apology, BH promised to learn from that incident and thoroughly inspect their processes for future productions.
With its Asian background, it's astounding Hybe didn't see this coming or was indifferent to it.
@lil_meow_meow @isicolo_bangtan Yes, how could they be indifferent to this? That still blows my mind. Guess it's money over common sense.
