Last month, Boy George launched a new company called Artist Included, which will use AI to allow artists to create new versions of earlier songs which resemble the originals, as a way of wresting back control of master recordings. It launched with a new version of Karma Chameleon, which Boy George recorded then de-aged. “When I heard it, I was absolutely gobsmacked,” he told the Hollywood Reporter. “It sounds like another take from that original session.”
He’s just going all-in on the shit-takes. Probably, just desperate for people to talk about him again.
Are people asking me, as someone with principles, to turn my back on my Jewish friends? That is not going to happen – it will never happen. From the beginning of my career, I wore the Star of David … I feel very connected to the Jewish people. I’m not necessarily connected to Israel. I don’t really have an opinion on that. But the mission of music is to unite people.”
He said, after shoving his uninformed opinion on Israel and it's ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people down everyone's throat...
Like, it doesn't seem that he actually supports what's happening, it's more like he has no fucking idea what is happening.
He doesn't even understand that Israel doesn't control the Jewish people.
Saying Israel is committing a genocide only betrays your friends who support the genocide, it has fuck all to do with religion.
Palestine's issues aren't that the people living in Israel are Jewish, it's that the people living in Israel don't see Palestinians as humans. They could be Christians, Muslims, or Atheists and the Palestinians would still be upset they're victims of decades long genocide.
That's pretty much everyone's response to genocide, it doesn't matter why your people are a target, you just don't want to be genocided.
I guess he doesn't realize there are quite a lot of Jewish people around the world (including song in Israel) who consider what's happening in Palestine to be genocide.
But then I strongly suspect there's a lot of things he doesn't realize. He seems quite clueless in general.
Old people really need to stop... most of them probably all have terrible views on lots of things, but if they stay irrelevant ill never know! This just keeps happening more and more lately and it forces me to continue building my list of everyone I lost respect for. Just stay in obscurity and this would never happen!
