Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?
Thanks for watching the video. Ban / Censorship advocates and overly sensitive alarmists trying to moralize artistic expression can eat 100 dicks. When you see 'em, tell 'em they can eat 100 dicks.
+theneedledrop i don't think i've heard you swear so much in one video! someone should censor this!!
+theneedledrop one of our rags tried insinuating that Cave was responsible for the death of his son because of his "dark" lifestyle. true story :(
+theneedledrop That's not the British flag. Looks like someone made it on Paint. Come on Anthony.
+Teej Coile what, you don't like a good bootleg? this is the hardcore DIY version of the flag.
+theneedledrop Or they can run backwards through a field of them.
I like how this dude put his own feelings aside about Tyler and called this out
just because he doesnt like tyler's music doesnt mean he doesn't like tyler as a person.
Ah yeah that's true
I don't even know who Tyler is and I oppose the bull of baning him. He has the right to travel to these places and should seek legal recourse on these bans. Moreover, I would be very, very happy to see 'clean' versions and Parental Advisory stickers gone. It's arbirtrary and unneccesary. Parents evaluate what they are willing to expose their children to, and if the kids can buy them themselves, they're old enough to hear Eminem call Moby a fag.
ya even though i disagree with this nigga review of lil yachty (seriously fantano, fuck you for that review, fucking hate you for it), i respect his dumb ass for doing this video. salute
why do you hate someone for their opinion. i hate you for using that dirty language, you dirty, dirty man
Freethony Speechtano standing up for the people
I live in the UK. This is typical of the government here, we ban people like Tyler over song lyrics but we don't bother with immigration and actual problems like bedroom tax and such. Fucking joke.
+Jordon Jones So true, sadly.
+Jordon Jones Don't forget that David Cameron is trying to ban porn
UK is not the problem is the stupid government
I agree UK is in a terrible state right now.
Really?
I wasn't expecting Filthy Frank. I lol'd.

It's filthy frank, bitch.
+False Dawn anthony and Joji/FilthyFrank are actually good friends
Experionu Yeah I know. Frank was on Calassic. Frank is also friends with howtobasic.
Tyler's next album is going to be incredible because of all this shit.
Don't count on it...
+DazeOfWar he meant to say movie, not album!
+DazeOfWar yeah he has already said its not gonna happen
+DazeOfWar If you don't like it then don't watch videos about it
Rembrandt Truly sound advice to live by. If you don't like my opinion then don't respond to my opinion. Fuck off, shithead.
It's just silly. Eminem can make one of the most distasteful rhymes about outright raping Iggy Azalea, yet apparently what Tyler said when he was 18 needs to be looked at and he needs to be banned from the UK.
Yeah but fr fcuk iggy azalea tho
+Matthew Chambers She's a piss poor rapper yes, but that lyric was too far. It didn't make any sense at all, it was a tasteless lazy attempt at trying to be shocking and it didn't really work. But my point is, Tyler saying he'll rape a pregnant bitch and have a threesome in 2009 and getting banned for it, doesn't make much sense when you have Eminem only recently saying he'll just outright rape Iggy Azalea.
I don't hate Em and Tyler, but Tyler literally rapped about rape constantly.
+TheNerdyResponder Tyler was pretty bad in Bastard and Goblin like when it came to rape and misogyny, but they were released years ago. Why take that sort of action of banning him for 5 years, when it happened years ago and Eminem is STILL, at 40 years old rapping about raping women.
+Whip It Good I agree with you, honestly fuck this censorship.

Even if there were statistical proof that art was harmful, you're right- it's all subjective, and policing art has always gone poorly when the government has tried to police it.

everything is ruined everyone and there's nothing we can do about it.
Never agreed with anything MORE than this fuck yes anthony. If you start banning rappers because of their graphic and violent lyrics why not ban authors for their graphic and violent literature or poets etc. like where is the line supposed to end?? this is my favourite video from you along with that 50min one of worst album of 2016, love u
You are sexually attractive.
Great comment, Leon. Tell me, what are you expecting to accomplish here...?

They didn't ban Tyler back when he introduced those lyrics because the world has become so fucking politically correct recently, to the point where you can't say or do anything without someone being offended or claiming they are being "oppressed."
By the way Anthony, can you upload a separate video of you just saying the part "No one's right to free speech should end, where your feelings begin. Fuck your feelings!" Man that is one of the best quotes I've ever heard.

Tyler got banned from my country of New Zealand (referenced in Smuckers) and under our freedom of information laws, it was found that the Department of Immigration banned him because it would "make a good story". I was so furious and I still am and it's just frustrating nothing can be done about it.
Thank god Labour got into power now..

Did the man who invented UK go to UK?
Bwhahahaha
+Andries Pretorious hopsin is fucking trash

Getting banned is great free publicity. Also as for pulling the race card, Eminem had a lot of negative press and mothers groups trying to ban his music here in UK back in the naughties.
Yeah but he never actually got banned
+xisumavoid If thats true then Eminem should definitely be banned from the UK now right. His lyrics are way more explicit than Tylers
You're absolutely right. Fuck the race card too, throw all the bullshit out the window at once, Anthony. Don't pick and choose.
but was Eminem banned? no. As you can see, your argument just shit itself
garyhamilton97 Eminem was nearly banned from Australia, but do to his "ultra fame" status he managed to slip through. Canada and the U.K. have never really been fond of him either (in terms of the government). So before you go whining about how it's a race issue, think about how relevant Eminem is to Tyler. He's alot more famous, that's the issue.
Why am I just now seeing this?

Cullen Hipskind saaaame
I think you explained why in your question.

To be fair, I think parental guidance stickers are fine. That's just letting parents know what their kids are listening to.
+MayorOfPyongyang I should clarify that I'm only talking about the bit where he mentions parental guidance stickers. What happened to Tyler is stupid, pure and simple.
hes got a huge fan base in the UK.
sucks to hear of this.

Excellent point on the race issue. Feminism is an excellent cover for the new racism.
+coweatsman I like your attitude. As Voltaire said, "I disagree with what you say but I'll defend to the death your right to say it".

This whole situation is a joke, I am a fan of Tyler's and the fact I won't be able to see him live for maybe 5 years is extremely annoying. Never once have I found Tyler's music 'dangerous' or 'intoxicating'. Eminem has had far worse lyrics and can headline festivals, just disgusting. I wish our government would focus on actually problems such as Uni fees and less on rubbish like this.
+Jessica Abdy Agreed, and i'm not even a fan. Infact, I dislike Tyler the creator and odd future as a whole personally, but that doesn't mean I have the right to tell them how to live their lives and control what they say. They can say what they want, just like anyone else.
Meizzeli Really? I used to be lightly into their stuff in 2011 or so, i fell out of that though. I had no idea.
Throwback to when this video was titled. “TYLER THE CREATOR BANNED IN THE FUCKING UK. ITS BULLSHIT”
> Whats offensive is completely subjective
SO FUCKING TRUE DUDE
Just bear in mind that our UK Prime Minister wanted to ban pornography once. That's what we're dealing with in this country.

Never seen Fandango this legitimetly angry over something... I agree with him 100%
Tyler The Creators tour in Australia did get banned. But it's worth noting that the same group who were behind this also tried to ban Eminem.

Now that the show is over, and we have jointly exercised our constitutional rights, we would like to leave you with one very important thought: Some time in the future, you may have the opportunity to serve as a juror in a censorship case or a so-called obscenity case. It would be wise to remember that the same people who would stop you from listening to Tyler, The Creator may be back next year to complain about a book, or even a TV program. If you can be told what you can see or read, then it follows that you can be told what to say or think. Defend your constitutionally protected rights - no one else will do it for you. Thank you
That ending was such a truth bomb it could probably melt steel beams.
Do a video on MattyBRaps.
If my demands are not met, I will click like on the Where is the Love 2016 video clip. You have 72 hours.

Dude, spot on.
I'm not gonna lie, I've glanced at your videos and furrowed my brow as I'm not into reviewers and critics (I've always found the critique of art pretentious, snobby, and unnecessarily analytical) but I always appreciate thinking, intelligent individuals who see through the bullshit and are outspoken with their views.
This is Melon's best video to date, it is 2019 and he hasn't surpassed that yet
In the immortal words of Boards of Canada,
"Now that the show is over

Thanks for posting this video Anthony, I was originally going to comment on how New Zealand would never ban an artist like Tyler the Creator from performing in New Zealand and then I did some research and found out that he was banned here as well. Only difference was that the department of Immigration cited that he was deemed to be a potential threat to public order and the public interest.
best ending ever
This is honestly just a great video, so right
Yes! Internet high five and hugs! Well said. Just because someone disagrees or dislikes someones art/lyrics, etc, does not give them the right to censor and ban them.
It's not just because he's black. ICP gets this kind of treatment all the time.
no one asked you
aye, thats fuckin mature mate
I have a feeling that this stuff comes from different sources. I think that certain people have a racist agenda, others don't. But no matter the motivation, this needs to be out out before it gets worse
Johnny Rohlf Juggalos are known to destroy stuff and leave cities torn up after a show. ICP gets banned because of their cringy toxic fanbase. ICP has some decent tracks, I like some of their older stuff and haven't looked into them much since rap isn't really my thing, but the fanbase in general is just bad and ruins it for everyone. Fanboyism is a powerful thing.

What's the fuss over Sad Wings of Destiny? That's one of my favorite JP albums, definitely my sister's favorite. The trial focused on Stained Class, specifically the only cover on it, Spooky Tooth's 'Better By You, Better Than Me', another favorite. Fantastic album. It was really strange, and frankly absurd, to me that instead of pointing to the surface lyrics, they accused it of having 'back-masking'.
You can see here on YT somewhere Rob demolish the very idea of it in court by making up a completely arbitrary backmask message to be heard in another of their songs. Even listening for it, I can't hear any do-its in Better but I do hear his message.
God, 2:19 on is just so good. This is the fantano I remember.
Kind of a low-point. Of course we limit the freedom of speech, we don´t allow threats, we don´t allow fraud, and many countries don´t allow what is considered hate speech. In this case i kind of agree that Tyler is being unfairly singled out, he is hardly unique in terms of his lyrical content. I could name alot of british bands with more offensive lyrics then his. But when it´s like nazi bands and shit like that who only use the "art" as a means to spread a hateful political message, i have no problem with banning it.
+Zetsubou Aaron Exactly, and in fact censoring them is exactly the wrong way to discredit them. Let them spout their hateful nonsense, and sure they'll get a few idiot followers, but 99.99% of people will laugh at them and tell them to fuck off! "Protecting" people from ideas is never a good idea. Expose them, so people can look at the ideas and disregard them.
Fuck off you fucking SJW. We don't take degenerates of your kind around here.
+OGsid Unfortunately what is a "hateful political message" is entirely subjective so your point of view is not compatible with free speech. Someone far left may think someone who is right-of-centre politically has a "hateful political view" while to me it would not be. As Anthony said, freedom of speech cannot end where your feelings begin. you can't pick and choose where it applies
+OGsid When we talk about freedom of speech, we mean freedom to offend
chaps Whats offensive is subjective so thats not really true.
This is by far my favorite video by you. Not because of just tyler but mainly because of how you laid down the truth about butt hurt people being offended by everything and how certain politicians try to push their agenda on us and spread hate propaganda.
Well put, my friend
Preach from 0:00 - 6:58
Great to see some fire come out of Anthony on this subject. Please, throw in more curses to your reviews, it makes it all the much better
That ending though... 10/10
You just did what I have always wanted to do for some reason and thats create a youtube channel and joyfully tell dumbfucks to unsubscribe. Almost no you-tubers do it because they don't wanna jeopardize their view counts but damn I would love it.
Usually Anthony you are very professional in near all your videos but i loved how passionate and angry you got about this subject
'No one's right to free speech should end, where your feelings begin. Fuck your feelings'! Sure Anthony, tell that to the jews in 1945 Germany who were being shamed and targeted as a scapgoat through the use of Government propaganda. Would you still advocate that kind of free speech? Don't get me wrong, i too agree with the points you have made in this video, but where and how do you draw the line on where free speech should end, if at all? not a hater, geniune question. :)
To me, there's a difference between saying all Jews are terrible people, from then acting on that by actually bullying them to the point where they actually get harmed physically. To me, the latter is where I'd draw the line.
That wasn't free speech. That was a superior power manipulating unsuspecting people to strip innocent human beings of free speech. There's a difference, the laws weren't ending where the jew's feelings began, they ended where the jew's rights began.
Dan Adams pretty sure that would be hate speech, not free speech
Honestly I don't mind the parental advisory sticker, it's iconic
Damn!!!!! Anthony turned into Myke C-Town for six minutes
Watching this in 2019 and laughing “not as much relevance as he used to have” hahahha
I mean he has gotten much better and more commercially viable over the past few years.

It's so stupid that Tyler is still being judged so harshly for his early projects considering how far he's come as an artist and a person
You have a legitimate point to decry the banning of art, as you do in this video. I agree with you, art shouldn't be banned under any circumstances. But, it's totally absurd to me that you seem to think that art exists in vacuum, that, somehow, by it's very nature, art is harmless. Art is always a vehicle for ideology, and ,I'm sorry, some ideologies deserve condemnation. You seem to have a tendency to call out racial bigotry when you see it. However, you say "it's just music, it's harmless, stop whining". What is your reaction to racist art forms? Do you deny the potency and potential for pain that a black-faced minstrel show can evoke? Do you deny the influence that Leni Riefenstahl's documentaries had in mobilizing the Third Reich and empowering nationalist sentiments and fostering hatred toward the Jews and other oppressed minorities? Why do you underestimate the effects of music that dehumanizes and promotes violence towards women will have on listeners? Again, I don't advocate for the banning of art, period, but music that promotes hatred of particular groups of people should be scrutinized, and its influence shouldn't be underestimated.
This is an excellent point. I'd argue that the Third Reich shit was propaganda, although art, it was weaponised for the maximum amount of pain they could cause against oppressed minorities. The context is much different than some questionable lyrics from a young black rapper breaking the mould with extreme antics and shocking lyrics. All art has different purposes. The thing is with free speech that you don't just destroy their rights, you oppose it. Don't like what someone says, talk about it, shout about it. We (the Allies) sure as hell fought against fascism at the time. And if someone feels so strongly about opposing Tyler, do it. You'll probably get your ass beat by hordes of internet trolls desensitised to any vulgarity in his songs but still.
Hahaha hell yeah Fantano, this is angriest i've ever seen you.

Agreed. As a British viewer, it disgusts me that this man was banned for not being PC, but actual hate preachers at this time (Anjem Choudary, Nick Griffin) were allowed to spew their bile perfectly freely without so much as the occasional arrest.
Liberals ban as much art as conservatives, especially when it comes to video games. Look up some of what Hilary Clinton has said about video games.
If not not mistaken it was a feminist group who tired to get Tyler band from Austrialia
+TJ Chapman Very true. But Hilary is just one person, a bit like saying all conservatives are all homophobic because the Westboro Baptist Church are, which is incorrect. It does not describe a whole ideology or group. I support gender equality but games are just games.
It should be a neutral field where people can create whatever they want, it's up to the individual to buy or play it.
