James Arthur compares self to "exploited" Blackfish killer whale in another meltdown
 
Quote:

James Arthur has compared himself to an "exploited" killer whale.

The X Factor winner likened himself to Tilikum, the subject of anti-SeaWorld documentary Blackfish, who has been linked to the deaths of three people while in captivity, as he announced that he will release a free hip hop mixtape titled All The World's a Stage.

James Arthur will release a free hip hop mixtape for fans

Asking fans to design the artwork for the mixtape, he said that he wants it to include a killer whale "attacking a crowd of people".

He tweeted: "I would like the front cover to be a drawing of the killer whale/ Orca from sea world who features in the documentary "Blackfish" TILIKUM.

"Ideally I'd like him to be attacking a crowd of people, lashing out after being exploited. Include my name and the title of the mixtape."

The singer also promised to meet the winning artist in person, adding that the mixtape will include 14 tracks of him "singing, rapping and producing".

Meanwhile, Arthur has described his promotion team as "embarrassing", asking them to "stick to promoting Paul Potts".

James Arthur branded his promotion team "embarrassing"

He tweeted: "HQ please stop writing things like 'we think you would #LOVE This and that' or 'everybody #GETDOWN and buy this..' It's embarrassing."

"Stick to promoting Paul Potts please. Thanks. #LOVE," he added.

Potts responded to the post shortly after, urging Arthur to stop acting like an "amateur".

Paul Potts told James Arthur to stop acting like an "amateur"

The Britain's Got Talent star said: "@JamesArthur23 you're a talented guy and ur music is great. But you're not an amateur anymore. Criticising ur promotion team openly on here isn't the best idea.

"Their wages come out of your budget and there will come a time when you need them more than they need u."

Simon Cowell recently admitted that Arthur should have been told to "shut up" after causing controversy with some of his comments in recent months.
