“What pet should I get?”

July 30, 2015

Earlier this week, Tyler, the Creator tweeted that he had been banned from Australia due to the efforts of an activist group that believed the rapper encouraged negative attitudes towards women. The Australian government later issued a statement suggesting that a decision had not yet been made about Tyler’s visa. However, after the MC called out one of the activists and accused her of denying him access to the country, she received a number of threats from the rapper’s fans on social media.
