During his concert, rapper Slowthai appeared on stage wearing a sweater with a huge swastika on his chest.

Obviously, several people noticed it, following which social networks went up in flames.

At first glance, some therefore believed that the sweater in question supported Nazi ideology. On the other hand, the 24-year-old rapper claimed, on Twitter, that he meant just the opposite and that he apologized to people who might have been upset.

It’s that there would be the word destroy above the swastika, in clear opposition to the fascist regime.

For its part, the organization of Osheaga took the time to clarify everything to the public on its Instagram page.
