It was all eyes on Kneecap yesterday as the controversial Irish rappers took to the stage at this year’s Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
The band’s inclusion on the line-up for one of France’s biggest and most popular music events had already been source of controversy, as there were calls made to remove the group from the bill. The festival ended up having its funding substantially cut, and the French Minister of the Interior Bruno Retailleau was forced to reiterate his zero-tolerance stance towards any disorder.
