EGYPT BANS TRAVIS SCOTT FOR AFROCENTRISM? 😳😳

EGYPT BANS TRAVIS SCOTT FOR AFROCENTRISM?
Another big-name African in America has reportedly been banned from performing in Egypt. The latter country’s Musicians Syndicate is said to be outraged by rapper Travis Scott’s Afrocentric beliefs - though US promoters deny the plug has been pulled on his July 28th gig at the Giza pyramids. Certain Egyptian groups have been calling for the event to be cancelled.
As we await clarity, let’s remember that comedian Kevin Hart found himself in the same predicament earlier this year, while the recent Netflix film about Cleopatra starring a Black lead also left many Egyptians livid.
What is clear to us is that Black Africans were an integral part of ancient Egyptian civilisation and achievements, and that no amount of outrage, denials and no-platforming will change that fact.
