Lift unjust ban on Hip Hop Artist Tyler the Creator from entering the Country
In August 2015 Home Secretary Theresa May implemented a ban on Tyler The Creator from entering the Country on the grounds that his work "encourages violence and intolerance of Homosexuality and fosters hatred with views that seek to provoke others to commit terrorist acts" This is an unfair sanction
Tyler was banned for the Lyrics he wrote in Songs 6-7 years Earlier Which include Radicals and Tron Cat,Admittedly when first listening to these songs they have a strong Message and are Controversial,But these are the writings of a 16-17 year old? Tyler is now 25 and displays a more positive message in his songs such as his feature in another UK Favourite the A$AP Mob's Telephone Calls;Before Tyler's Ban he had Visited 20+ times since releasing the songs he was banned for..So why ban him at all?
