Alice Glass, formerly of the band Crystal Castles, shared the clip along with the caption: “I’m sorry I have to give a trigger warning for this one. this video of mgk is disturbing.”

She continued: “As a white man, would you ever talk like this? fetishizing black women and in such a disrespectful way!?

show respect for Black Women who’s culture you are appropriating. apologize for this @machinegunkelly this was beyond disgusting.”

Glass added: “But all this isnt just about one artist. there is a bigger picture here. this is about how men who act like this are still given power and opportunities in an industry that willfully perpetuates sexist, racist and abusive behavior. it needs to change.”

Out of context or not, that is not the kind of thing someone should be saying for any reason." Another fan added: "I wonder what he would say if someone shoed this to his (black) daughter".
