Leo Trainee A, a trainee under bighit music. In a rap contest he wrote misogyny lyrics. But he said preceptor ’ thyroxine beware the lyrics, he wrote it when he was harebrained. He apologized by and by though, but his mentality was quite like an anti-feminist. pic.twitter.com/FFT3HlK2nq

I do n’t even care what Leo looks like I ‘m not dense I can clearly see that he did n’t do anything ill-timed. Leo did n’t meant the lyrics serious. He is a Trainee. A human being and a RAPPER. Sorry I had to break it to you but this is what the Rap industry is like .
