“I find it extremely hypocritical that a number of parties are turning away from him who have earned money from him for years,” said Van den Heuvel. “Topnotch employs and under contract rappers who have performed the most horrible things. We are talking about life crimes, some are in prison. You never hear them about that, they never answer. And now that there is widespread social outrage, they immediately take their hands off someone. ”

According to Van den Heuvel, Top Notch should come forward now and ‘help to try to prevent this in the future’. He thinks the way in which Wahib is now being addressed by everyone is ‘way too far’. “He has done something very stupid and will suffer the consequences for many years to come. But his intention was never to create and distribute child pornography, which is now charged to him. The genie can be put back in the bottle after this boom of reactions. ” The journalist especially believes that parents should become more aware of what their children are doing online.

Top Notch immediately ended its collaboration with Wahib on Wednesday. “We have taken note of the actions of Bilal Wahib on Instagram Live last night. This has made us decide to immediately resign all activities with regard to the artist Bilal Wahib ”, according to the label. Top Notch says it regrets the situation and disapproves of the artist’s behavior. “We await further reporting from the management of Bilal Wahib and refer everyone to the management for comment.”
