Iraj Speaks Out On Selfie Rap & The Drama Revolving
This is an interesting post by the producer especially after the events that transpired last week between Fill T & Chitral Somapala (The rapper posted a selfie rap video dissing the rockstar with a broom due to a status Chitral had put up and this resulted in an escalation of tension on social media which resulted in the rapper posting a pic of both of them together which we think was to show all was “good” between both them). Here’s is that pic posted on Friday.
We wish Iraj would have encouraged kids to represent the actual culture they are from as we feel this would lessen the hate generated towards SelfieRap and those that contribute to it. We’ve been watching as many videos as we can and our conclusion: There are kids we feel that are talent in the rough and some of those names might even go onto reaching greater heights once refined in the art..Sinhala Rap is something we are very proud of since it is an art from the motherland but why spoil it by pretending to be African American and use their slang? As Asians we are to be prideful in our own especially as Lankans! We even have our own version of English that’s yet to be used but hey, that’s just our two cents though.
Check out the producer’s reply to all that has been going on.
