Damso after taking off World Cup song: exactly what I needed

amsterdam - The Belgian rapper Damso, who seemed to survive a storm of criticism but was not allowed to write an official World Cup song at the last minute, has responded to all the commotion for the first time.

The artist responds laconically and ironically: 'Ladies and gentlemen, male haters and feminists, I forgive you and thank you for this confusion about me.' This promo is exactly what I needed for my album to be launched on July 15 this year. '

When it became known that the popular Damso was allowed to write the Belgian World Cup song, a storm of criticism broke loose. Activists delicately pointed to texts like 'I n ** k their mother with vix'. And: 'women, beware if you rattle with my throbbing, then I become dangerous, and I can cut your throat'.

While sponsors such as Coca-Cola asked the football association to break with Damso, and the responsible secretary of state had also said something about it, the union initially remained firm. A spokesman praised the 'unifying elements' of Damso's texts.

In the statement of two days later, when it was decided to stop with Damso, it was emphasized that values ​​such as equality and respect are high in the saddle.

'I do not know what to say,' Damso now responds. 'This is unbelievably sympathetic, I will kiss you where it is desired, your well-liked Damso.'
