At 93.3 The Beat in Jacksonville, listeners have been calling in to give their thoughts.
The discussion was sparked by a series of anti-Semitic comments and social media posts by Ye. His Twitter account was suspended after Elon Musk said it violated the platform’s rules on inciting violence.“The conversation has been a good one because I have had more ‘yeahs,’ we should continue playing his music, then compared to the ‘nahs,’” said T-Roy, a radio personality at The Beat.“No, we should not. If you support him, you support those views.
T-Roy says he’s been advising listeners who feel that way to take race and color out of the picture and actually listen to some of the things Ye has said about Jews and why he liked Hitler. T-Roy says, at the end of the day, people who love Ye’s music may be OK with it still playing on the radio, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they want to attend a concert.
