Outrage as pro-Trump rapper and country singer release pro-lynching song: ‘Hang ‘em up high at sundown’ White rapper and singer call for public hangings after raging against reactions to Charlie Kirk’s death A white rapper known for viral anthems supporting Donald Trump and Republican officials has released a music video with a country singer calling for public lynchings. Over a banjo riff, the chorus of “Good vs Evil” from MAGA rapper Forgiato Blow and country singer JJ Lawhorn repeats instructions for hanging people at “sundown,” an apparent reference to “sundown towns” that violently enforce racial segregation. The song calls for “a big tall tree and a short piece of rope” to “hang ‘em up high at sundown” and “leave ‘em swinging so the folks all know you don’t mess around in our town.” A verse from Forgiato Blow, whose real name is Kurt Jantz, lists three white murder victims whose killer or accused killers are Black and Latino. He named the killings of Austin Metcalf, Laken Riley, and Iryna Zarutska, who was fatally stabbed on a bus in North Carolina. Jantz says she was killed by a “n******.” Later, Lawhorn sings “we ought to do it like they did it way back in the day because grandaddy’s way works best.” The song follows the assassination of right-wing Christian activist Charlie Kirk, which has provided the Trump administration with a framework to prosecute Democratic officials and left-wing groups by using a sweeping campaign against protected speech. “I’m done being silent in my faith!” Jantz wrote in a post on Instagram sharing the song. “Im done being a silent conservative, I’m no longer concerned that truth may hurt your feelings. Jesus is coming back and we are all part of his mission! I am Charlie Kirk!” “SOMEBODY HAS TO SAY IT,” Lawhorn wrote. Jantz, the self-described “Mayor of MAGAville,” has been the face of a “MAGA rap” subgenre built explicitly around support for the president with provocative songs referencing right-wing culture wars and Trump’s agenda, seemingly designed to bait critics. “In the wake of all the violent killings recently… is it time to bring back public executions?” Jantz wrote on X. “RT if you agree!” “Meanwhile they say the left is engaging in hate speech,” one person wrote on social media in response to his latest song. “Insane how unsubtle this is,” another wrote. “What else do you call this other than a call for violence?” asked another. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...mp-rapper-lynching-song-country-b2827708.html
I hate that it's come to this, but I agree with the sack of rotting potatoes that said this text exchange seems fake. Especially the "my love" part. It's like those movies, on Hallmark, that have such stupid exchanges between siblings that *never* actually happen in real life. If my A: roommate or B: best friend or (as they're implying) C: lover had said this, esp at that age, there'd be a shit ton of "WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK!!??!?!" and a lot of "fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck" said over and over. And "dude, you NEED to turn yourself in" etc. This feels like people who don't know how young people talk. I'm not saying it is 100% fake, but it just feels (as a lot of the other stupid things these podcasters are using as evidence) too convenient.
Honestly, didn't even catch the "squad car". I doubt anyone under 40 has ever said that phrase not ironically.
The amount of stuff people in their 20's have no idea about boggles my mind. Basically ask most of them anything from the 80s, 90s or 2000s and they have no idea what you are talking about. Makes you feel like an old fart.
