N-Dubz rapper Dappy has released a video of his new freestyle titled "Tarzan 2" which follows the original Tarzan freestyle from last August. In his new freestyle Dappy says some very controversial and unpleasant things about a whole host of leading music industry figures including Simon Cowell, Alexandra Burke, Tinie Tempah and female DJ's Max and Sarah-Jane Crawfrord of Choice FM and BBC Radio 1xtra respectively.
Dappy displays his undoubted talent in this freestyle and the production from S-X (of Woo Riddim fame) is absolutely banging. However the video is bound to cause a huge stink and ruffle a fair few feathers. Choice FM's Max has already taken to Twitter to slam the misogynistic lyrics aimed at her in the freestyle. The video also features a blow up doll with a picture of her face taped to it getting rogered. According to Max the pair are friends which makes Dappy's attack on her even more dissapointing. She also hit out at Dappy's level of disrespect towards women, particularly as he is a father. Sarah-Jane retweeted Max's comments.

Max's response in full is as follows:
"I’m very disappointed in Dappy for the way he spoke about me and other women in his latest freestyle.
We have been friends for a long time, that have always respected each other personally and professionally.
To speak about a friend or any woman that has done you no wrong in that way is inexcusable.
He is also a dad and being so derogatory towards women is unacceptable.
Disrespecting friends only makes you look like a bully, especially just so you benefit financially, because let’s be honest it doesn’t bring you any creative accolades.
I want all the girls that follow me and support what I do to know no man has any right to talk about women this way unprovoked and unjustified. He should know better, we are supposed to be friends."

Even his own cousin and X Factor Judge Tulisa has hit out at the video. Tulisa tweeted "i wish Dappy never mentioned cancer in #Tarzan2
Update! Even Dappy's own cousin Tulisa has spoken out about this video tweeting "i wish Dappy never mentioned cancer in #Tarzan2 thats a sensitive subject... "
ReplyDeleteAnother update: Dappy took down the original video from Youtube as the opening credits listed a load of criminals who should be set "free". Dappy admitted that he didn't know the serious nature of the crimes committed by some of the listed prisoners and issued an apology. The new video is the same except for the removal of the list. Dappy has now stated that all the proceeds from the sale of this track will be donated to charity.
