Appalling behaviour by rapper The Game

[pjani]

As the intro explains: Video has emerged of rapper The Game urging an unwilling female fan to show her breasts at a show in Adelaide before his friends grope her and eventually push her off stage.

I'm not sure what should be done to challenge this kind of behaviour but surely something is needed!

[Archemedes]

That is Shocking , Has he been made to apologise ???

[SmellsLikeTeenStrop]

"The Game apparently responded to the controversy this afternoon on Twitter with the message: "n- be givin these hoes too much power"."

I think that means he feels it's ok to treat women that way.

[msrisotto]

That's awful, they repeatedly grope her and she has to brush them away. Dickheads.

[Archemedes]

He's probably just put that just to get the frothers going e.g. lapping up the controversy.

[MoChan]

I'm not sure they are courting controversy when they say stuff like that though, Archemedes. I think the current popular rap culture is so steeped in violence and misogyny that they don't particularly think they're doing anything wrong, and expect their fans to back them. I think they do think it's okay to treat women that way.

Never heard of him before i saw this thread. That is fucking appalling. Its assault. Why is no one in that industry doing anything?

[BeriBlue]

It was his FAN, how bloody low can he get? I hope tons of his fans abandon him now after he assaulted one of them.

[BeriBlue]

Seriously, doesn't he understand what he is doing. It like some white rapper would tweet "whiteys be givin these niggaz too much power" and assualt black fans.

[Archemedes]

It doesnt surprise me tbh,

my DF ex wife , was working backstage as security at a very well known rappers concert and carrying stuff and clearly struggling.

He went 'get out my fucking way' what a charmer

[MrsClown]

I have never heard it 'it' either. I cant believe it. How far have we sunk. I remember when I was a teenager trying to climb on stage when I went to see a boy band in the 70s. Thank God I didnt get that reaction!

[Chocobo]

How depressing! They should be arrested for sexual assault although I am sure that somebody will be along soon to say it was just a bit of fun and we have had a sense of humour failure.
