The Rose’s Woosung criticised for using a slur in his song lyrics

The Rose’s Woosung has come under fire by fans for using an offensive word in the lyrics of one of his songs.

Woosung’s new song MOON, from his recent solo EP: WOLF recently gained attraction for using the lyrics:

“Are you retarded? Maybe just blinded?”

The word “retarded” is an offensive slur used towards disabled people. Fans took to twitter to criticise his lyrics for being hurtful and ignorant.

Although many were disappointed at his lyrics, some also defended the singer.

What do you think about the situation?

He's from sol cal? You realize how often that people use that word here. Yeah it has a negitive history but here it's aimed at people who have a perfectly functional brain that choose not to use it.

People seriously act like adults tell us not to use that word in America...what’s with this world nowadays that people think they can become internet saviors and call people out when it’s never actually done in reality? Ofc since he lived in Cali where people use this word all the time and nobody is told not to he wouldn’t have a problem saying it. Until you correct someone in real life instead of on the internet don’t expect them not to use it. It’s simple, if he was never corrected why would he not say it??? Everyone acting upset just so they can jump on a bandwagon, followers.
