KUALA LUMPUR, March 2 — Taiwanese rapper Dog G has received death threats over his latest song focusing on the Covid-19 outbreak.
Unhappy Chinese viewers commented on the song, with some even threatening him.
“If you say again that wuhan sick I will get an assassin from Taiwan to kill you,” was just one of the comments with many others such as another that said they would “treat” the 35-year-old singer to a bullet meal.
The singer had reportedly written the song W.H.O in response to Taiwan being suppressed by the World Health Organisation in the fight against Covid-19 according to Sin Chew Daily.
In the song, the outspoken singer had also lambasted China in their fight against Covid-19 and criticised the country for hiding the matter initially, causing it to become more widespread.
Despite the threats, Dog G said he would not be lodging a police report.
“But I do feel threatened by it. I just need to be more careful.”
