Italy demands to remove the representative of Estonia, the rapper Tommy Kesha, from Eurovision 2025 because of the offensive stereotypes about the Italians in the competitive song.
The Guardian writes about it.
The Espresso Macchiato song Tommy Kesha is a mixture of broken English and Italian.
It has the following text: “Ciao Bella, I’M Tomaso, Addicted to Tobacco. Mi Like Mi Coffè Very Importante ” (Ciao Bella, I’m Tomazo, dependent on tobacco. I love coffee very much).
As well as “Mi Money Numeroso, I Work AROUND The CLOCKO. That’s whoh i’m sweating like a mafioso. Life is like spaghetti, is Hard Until You Make It ” (I have a lot of money, I work around the clock. That’s why I’m sweaty like mafia. Life is like spaghetti, it is heavy until you cook it).
The Italian Codacons Consumer Association has decided to turn to the European Language Union with a question whether it is “appropriate to admit a song that insults the country and the whole community.”
The senator from the far -right party Liga Jan Marco Chantinayo also responded to the situation. He stated that “who offends Italy, should stay away from Eurovision.” And the track himself called “full stereotypes. “
Recall that Tommy Cash has performed concerts in Estonia, Czech Republic, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, USA and Russia.
The musician stated that he grew up in an area where there were many Russian -speaking populations, so he considers Russian, as well as Estonian.
In 2021, Tommy Cash visited the temporarily occupied Crimea, and after the start of a full -scale invasion, he refused to express a clear position on the war.
“It is very difficult to take the present hostilities, all this is very sad! I am a persistent opponent of any military aggression! And in every possible way I support Ukrainian people and people from Russia who do not support the invasion, it is not their choice … This is an extremely sad situation, and I very much hope that I will soon be able to return to these beautiful countries to perform new music there, ”the musician said.
