Gronk Sydney Rapper Spanian Has Been Dropped By His Management After Foul Homophobic Rant

Notorious Sydney eshay/rapper Spanian has been dumped by his record label, One Day, after he posted an extremely problematic rant on his Instagram. Spanian, who is known for his YouTube series It’s All Eats, was dragged online after he posted a disturbing rant claiming “child groomers are hiding in plain sight” during WorldPride. In his now deleted-rant, Spanian said, “I’m fucking sick of this fucking perverted putrid shit, like a bunch of deadset pedophiles hiding behind some fucking gay pride”. During the rant, Spanian also claimed that pride is being “forced” onto those who are not a part of the LGBTQIA+ community and referenced “big homosexual teddy bears” and the foul Balenciaga campaign.

This guys a fucking dumb cunt and I’m disappointed to see anyone I know liking Spanian’s post or justifying it. Disgusting behaviour and is a big setback that has left things wide open for people to be back on their homophobic/transphobic bullshit.

Huuuuugely disappointed at the Pasifika people I know publicly liking and sharing all the Spanian shit.

The shit Spanian is spouting in his latest video is the most violent, hateful and dangerous rhetoric you can get. 1000x more manic and harmful than the vitriol LGBTQIA+ people copped in the marriage equality (and that trans people cop every day). Any of you standing with him, rot

On a weekend that was meant to be about love, inclusion, self-worth, and pride, it was bloody disappointing to see Spanian’s rant. Equally disappointing to see those from our music community like and comment in support of it. Very telling.

More love & power to my queer family.
