Almost as if he recently spoke out against ICE to an audience of millions.Yeah it's fucking bizarre how an ICE agent is trying to paint a situation that way. Like why would they care about his persona at all?
It's always curious to me that hip hop threads get a ton of people pouring in to (rightfully so) call out homophobia, but when rock bands/artists get threads you don't ever see the same response. I never see those same posters in a thread about The Smashing Pumpkins taking a stance against Billy Corgan's gross, hateful transphobic comments, or if a new Megadeth album gets announced nobody wants to cancel Dave Mustaine for the dumb shit he said about gay marriage. And the rampant pedophillia among the classic rock era doesn't ever get more than a couple shrugs.
We absolutely need to call out all of this bullshit, but for some reason people seem to only wanna be advocates when they can rail against a genre/culture they don't like. It's a trend I've noticed in this community for years.
He spent years in juvenile, they could have figured out that 15 years ago. This smells like bullshit.

Because people are idiots.Maybe I'm missing something here as someone not from the US, but why are a lot of people here joking about this? Besides the fact that he apparently has kids that'll likely be deported with him (if this is even true in the first place), isn't this a rather serious matter? Yet all I see are unfunny memes.
Wait, if he came when he was 12 wouldn't he technically be a dreamer? Fuck ICE seriously
Unfortunately, his felony in 2014 would disqualify him from DACA.
Technically yes, but if he didn't apply for the protections they don't care.Wait, if he came when he was 12 wouldn't he technically be a dreamer? Fuck ICE seriously
The kids are born here they won't be they are natural born citizensMaybe I'm missing something here as someone not from the US, but why are a lot of people here joking about this?

Monie Love raps better than him.21 Savage instantly becomes the best British rapper of all time. Let's be real though, he did what he had to do. If it was known he was British most doors in the US would have been closed.
Honestly I can't imagine listening to his latest album and thinking he was a bad rapper.Y'alls probably just a bunch of old fucks meeting at a "new music is terrible" fan club lol nobodys trying to take away your old person music siddx
Yup. He's really grown as an artist. Dude really earned my respect over the last couple of years.Honestly I can't imagine listening to his latest album and thinking he was a bad rapper.
"A lot" was top 10 best rap songs last year imo.
Man, I haven't been able to stop thinking about this. His team needs to release something soon. Is this a misunderstanding or was he really born in the UK and lived there until he was 12? That's a pretty big thing to never bring up in interviews. But it's not really a shocking omission because a lot of these new rappers give terrible interviews because they're too concerned with their image (and a lot act like they just don't know how to talk to people).

The majority of these rappers are phony. Its weird there were so many people thinking that despite him getting seized that his "story" was real and the authorities have it wrong.
This situation does indeed suck, and he should be allowed to stay. But alot of these rappers arent what they rap about in their songs. Remember that. There are some, but most are phony
Why does ice have any fucking opinion on his persona?
Also he lived there since 12. How would it make what he said fake until proven?
True.Even if he's lived there till 12 he spent his teenage and young adult life in ATL and that's when you formed yourself the most.
Oh I agree. I wasn't joking, it just find it amazing that it took this long to come out and that he never mentioned it publicly because it's a pretty big thing.I can't stop thinking about it because like, I understand twitter jokes are going to fly and all, but dude got picked up by ICE. This isn't a fuckin' game you know? ICE is a terrible organization and 21 Savage contributes more to society than all of them put together, dudes out there trying to make life in Atlanta better for kids who shared his circumstance and now we know he's an immigrant too?
Fuck outta here with the jokes abolish ICE is what we should be memeing about
Whoever wrote that tweet can fuck off. Seriously, why are you raking Demi over the coals and not literally everyone else making jokes at Savage's expense? If you want to act like it's "peak white woman" for a celebrity to find memes funny and then get harassed by the folks that are also enjoying them, keep that same energy with literally everyone else who's making fun of this dude while his life falls apart.
https://youtu.be/DmWWqogr_r8?t=296To whoever saying 21 said something about ICE recently, you have a source? I want to see what he said.
Free 21
Abolish ICE
for a supposedly "progressive" forum a lot of y'all are missing the point here
Fixed that for you (a typo) and yeah, I agree.Yeah, I can't make a joke about a genuinely evil piece of shit like McCain after he died (not even about his death) who literally went out of his way to murder innocent people and put forward legislation that ruined lives. Yet taking the piss out of somebody who's being deported after he contributed a ridiculous amount to both the US economy (next to a regular person) and his Atlanta community by an institutionally racist organisation that murders kids and destroys family is fair game.

I'm not really seeing what's funny at all about any of this but maybe it's because I don't know who 21 Savage is?
To me it seems like some guy maybe lied about where he came from (Ok?) and said some shit ICE didn't like and so they went after him because how dare anyone speak out.
Hilarious.

Young Nudy, whose real name is Quantavious Thomas, was booked into the DeKalb jail on aggravated assault and gang charges about 4 a.m.
AJC.com first reported that 21 Savage, whose real name is Sha Yaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, was taken into custody by ICE early Sunday morning. Both rappers were arrested following a traffic stop during which two additional people were taken into custody by DeKalb police, the source said.
