Well, it's a mystery to me why celebrities get these awards anyway.
Totally unnecessary.

Give out less of them and to more deserving recipients.

It's just a Royal publicity stunt anyway, have to been seen to be 'cultured'. But we all know full well Liz and Phil aren't rocking out to any kind of Grime music.

Good response there.

That's an amazing thing to try to imagine, those 2 into Grime.

He deserves it, his comments are unacceptable.

Grime isn't music, so if anything he's been awarded for disservice to music.

Wiley has always been a dickhead.

Kim and Aggie have done more for grime than Wiley

Music is music, don't be such a gatekeeper.

Ah right thanks thought I'd typed out a response, got distracted then forgot to post it, hate it when I do that haha!

Disgusted by this. We don’t need such racists in this country.

Kizzy 26-07-2020 02:02 PM
So what did he say that got him 'cancelled'?...

GiRTh 26-07-2020 02:03 PM
Overrated idiot.

arista 27-07-2020 12:04 PM



Fair points from Emma
What made Wiley change?

Many of the same stereotypes that Boris used in his novel. Controlling the media etc.

Kizzy 27-07-2020 12:22 PM
There was one sentiment I agreed with that he highlighted. Antisemitism is racism. When did one form of racism usurp another?

For his tweets he's been threatened with jail, the removal of awards and titles earned prior...is this usual or normal for the use of racist tropes?

I'm not condoning what he has said, I haven't seen the tweets only heard what's been reported to have been said with some embellishments. However it begs the question is this response representative across the board on the subject of racist comments?
