Meek Mill received criticism for the video in Ghana

The US rapper caused quite a stir with a new video. However, it wasn’t what he expected. He filmed his latest music video in Ghana’s presidential palace, called Jubilee House – without official permission. Meek Mill was invited there and allowed to speak with the President of Ghana and recount his negative experiences with the American justice system. Apparently, the hip-hop star is using the waiting time creatively: Meek Mill can be seen rapping at various locations in the presidential palace, with his crew in the background, including on the official podium of the president of Ghana.

And there was criticism for that, many posts from Ghanaian Twitter users and video bloggers, but also from the US. General tenor: Meek Mill’s appearance is totally inappropriate given the importance of the Presidential Palace. Moreover, he still uses mature language such as the N-word and F-word on the site. Many have also wondered how Meek Mill managed to record video on location without being noticed. Former Ghanaian Education Minister Sam Ablakwa wrote: “The Presidential Palace is a high security area. All those responsible should be fired.And Meek Mill also wrote – namely an apology. He immediately pulled the video, it was also just a clip from an upcoming music video that he used as a teaser. Meek Mill wrote about it that he wanted to make a connection from Afro-Americans to Africans, from his music to the country of Ghana, because music is the connecting element. Under no circumstances does he want to offend the country of Ghana.

Lollapalooza is coming to India – as a zero-waste festival

This is a theme in the Indian music scene. At the end of January, the Lollapalooza Festival is coming to India, to the racetracks in Mumbai. Major international acts like Imagine Dragons, Diplo or The Strokes will be taking the stage alongside several Indian artists. The Lollapalooza festival series launched in the US in 1991, at the time an important festival for the alternative music scene. Meanwhile, Lollapalooza has become a worldwide attraction, the series moved to South America, and the first festival in Europe took place in Berlin in 2015. Expansion to India is considered the next milestone.

Another important milestone – for a festival of this magnitude around the world – has to be Lollapalooza India’s ecological balance. 60,000 visitors are expected but this festival is intended to be a “no waste” festival, the festival will sort waste, waste will be reduced and diverted to landfill or composted where it is biodegradable. India’s Lollapalooza should be a role model for similar festivals in other respects as well. So far, outside of Europe, environmental compatibility has not played a role in such a major event. There is a free water station to avoid getting in plastic bottles, use biodegradable cups instead. Any food not sold at the festival will be donated to charity.

dr Dre Prohibits Use of “Still DRE” by Republicans

The big beef in the US between the Republican Party and the hip-hop scene. The reason is the unusual use of classics. “Still DRE” by Dr. Dr. A Republican has now used this song for a self-promotional video. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a Republican in the US House of Representatives, even by Republican standards she is considered right-wing. On Monday he posted a video celebrating his colleague Kevin McCarthy’s election as Speaker of the House on Saturday (1/7/23) and his supporting role in it. The video is simply overlaid with the instrumental of “Still DRE”. In the clip, Greene walks down the halls of the House of Representatives, stopping in front of a poster reading, “There are only two genders, believe the science,” which could be seen as an insult to the LGBTQ community. Then she got a call from Donald Trump and took the first selfie with Kevin McCarthy after winning the polls.

So all that Dr. Dre, not necessarily partying. That’s why the songwriter deleted his video from all social platforms and made a statement about it. She would never allow a politician to use her music, especially someone as hateful and divisive as Marjorie Taylor Greene. He replied directly: He only used instrumentals and would never use a video with Dre’s misogynistic and police insults. From the net especially there was ridicule and ridicule. This is the new definition of horror, political pundit Rick Wilson posted.
