Jay Park has sparked a debate once again after posting a comment on his music video for "DNA Remix".
The AOMG and H1GHR MUSIC head previously caused outrage for the allegedly problematic lyrics for his 2020 track "MUKKBANG!", and after an initial response, he released a second apology. On June 15, Jay Park addressed the concerns about his allegedly racist and offensive lyrics once again in the comments for his "DNA Remix" MV, and it's now sparked a new session of debate among fans and listeners.
Though some netizens seemed satisfied with his explanation, others weren't so pleased. Netizens on Twitter commented, "He almost had me in the first half, but then it got into BS territory," "He just keeps doing things, and the apologies just get worse and worse," "He really compared hair dye to dreads," and more.
What are your thoughts on Jay Park's comment?
Honestly as a black woman, imitation is the highest form of flattery. And the whole world is imitating black culture. I get it because black culture is the most popular culture right now. It doesn’t offend me when they wear dreads or dress like us or try to speak like us because they just want to be like us. As long as it isn’t mockery, I’m cool with it
