Twitter Cancels Lil Nas X Over Old Tweets
Black Twitter slammed Lil Nas X over some alleged old islamophobic tweets. One of the surfaced tweets from the now suspended @nasmaraj account read, "Stop pretending there is no correlation between violence & Islam." This led to #LilNasXIsOverParty trending for the better part of Sunday with mixed reactions from tweeps.#LilNasXIsOverParty For anyone wondering what this situation is, here's the info. The account under fire is Nasmaraj. Lil Nas' old Twitter is @nasmarai . The whole Kpop Stan group has taken it to the next level by promoting their music, instead of looking at the evidence. pic.twitter.com/E5OOJTRnn0
