Destroy Lonely has come under fire after allegedly pushing a 15-year-old fan off a festival stage.
Playboi Carti’s artist makes a splash for all the wrong reasons…
Destroy Lonely is under intense scrutiny after an incident at the Beach, Please Festival in Romania. A 15-year-old boy was seriously injured during the rapper’s set. Here’s how it went down.
According to witnesses and video footage, the “Look Killa” rapper allegedly forced the underage fan to leap from the stage. Some say he shoved him when he paused in fear.
All I can say is “OUCH.” Look for yourself.
The teen fell nearly 10 feet. His body slammed a metal barricade. Emergency crews rushed the boy to a local hospital. Lil’ bro reportedly had a lung contusion, liver trauma and damage to one of his kidneys. I heard he broke a rib from another repor, too.
Festival organizers are not feeling Destroy Lonely now.
They said, “We consider the artist’s gesture to be irresponsible. We never want to collaborate with this artist again.” No word if anybody will be sued for this.
Destroy Lonely invited the fan onstage, but the situation quickly escalated when the boy appeared reluctant or scared to jump into the crowd. Suddenly, he’s wrapped around the barrier. DOH!
Outrage swiftly followed. But this is Carti’s artist. Not sure what they expected, but this is not shocking to me. Critics argue that fan welfare was not considered, especially for this young guy.
Destroy Lonely hasn’t addressed the incident and that’s making it worse.
The Beach, Please Festival says, “It is not our fault! We do everything on the up-n-up.” I am paraphrasing, but you get the idea.
The teen is recovering, as this happened over the weekend.
