The Amsterdam rapper writes on Instagram that his reaction after the ‘missed interview’ cannot be justified. ‘I am going to ask myself how this could have happened and what my role within Omroep Zwart will be.’ He announced that he would remain silent for the time being.

The interview was yesterday by the EO program This is the Day put online. After a question about his speech during the anti-racism demonstration on Dam Square, he says ‘stop, now!’ and ‘You’re going to take it off now, otherwise you’ll have a problem with me’. He would then have taken laptops and forced the presenter to delete the interview. However, there was another backup.

During the Black Lives Matter protest on Dam Square, he made the statement: ‘The moment in November that I see a Zwarte Piet, I personally kick his face’. A report was made against him, but the Public Prosecution Service decided not to prosecute him.
