Moby has sparked backlash from The Kinks’ camp after criticising the lyrics of the band’s classic track Lola, calling them “gross and transphobic” in a new interview.
The electronic musician told The Guardian that hearing the 1970 hit on a Spotify playlist left him “taken aback” by what he viewed as outdated themes, prompting a swift response from guitarist Dave Davies, who rejected the accusation and defended his brother Sir Ray Davies’ intentions behind the song.
