Ed Motta apologizes for criticizing hip hop: “Disrespectful and rude.”

Singer admits disrespectful behavior after saying hip hop listeners are ‘stupid’

Ed Motta posted a video on his social media to ask for forgiveness for the criticism aimed at hip hop listeners. The artist, who had exploded lovers of the musical genre, asked for forgiveness and admitted that his statements were not legal: “Disrespectful and rude behavior”.

“Hello hip hop people. I came here to apologize, to forgive you, for my rude and disrespectful behavior towards the movement. I was at a live, and my live, you know, is chaotic, I say bad things about a lot of things. But that doesn’t justify it,” he began.

Still in the same post, Ed Motta adds: “It was bad, I left my friends sad, friends who are part of the movement. And many people angry with me. So I ask you for forgiveness. I made a big mistake.” .”

The apology divided opinion. While some fans believe that the video demonstrates the singer’s greatness, as he acknowledged his mistake, other Internet users believe that he failed to recognize the importance of hip hop and rap.

Understanding the controversy involving Ed Motta

Ed Motta’s name was among the most discussed topics on social media last Wednesday (6/12), when the singer sparked controversy by stating, during a live broadcast, that “anyone who listens to hip hop is stupid”.

In the live song that went viral on the web, the artist begins: “I’m not fucking white. I’m black, but I represent the most sophisticated aspects of the race.” Subsequently, apparently, she reads a follower’s comment and accepts, starting her discussion about the musical genre she doesn’t like.

“Anyone who listens to hip hop is stupid,” he said. After repeating the expression “anyone” several times, he added: “Without exceptions. The other day I saw an excerpt of an interview with this idiot Rafinha Bastos: ‘Ah, because hip hop is the kind of music I like listening to the most’ . That guy is an idiot.”

According to Ed Motta, an “intelligent person” listens to jazz and classical music.
