(Video) Netizens Slam ALLDAY PROJECT's Tarzzan For Allegedly Saying The N-Word

Hype Malaysia2 days ago
Since his debut, ALLDAY PROJECT's Tarzzan (타잔) has come under continuous fire for his looks, which many say are inspired by black culture. Opting for braids and grills, netizens argue that his look edges towards cultural appropriation, for how he brings his persona and now he might just be under more heat from the community itself.
Recently, a video of ALLDAY PROJECT's Tarzzan emerged after netizens speculated he was saying the N-word during a guest appearance. The video showcases him in a car as he raps to 'LIKE WEEZY' by Playboy Carti.
The video, which has since been taken down on YouTube, shows the 22-year-old idol rapping to the first verse of the song, which originally reads, 'poppin' that boy like, pop'. Netizens have since pointed out that Tarzzan had changed the first 'boy' to the n-word, sparking major criticism for cultural appropriation yet again.
Twitter user @/mesrevaries comments, 'Everything about that Tarzzan guy should have gotten him cancelled even before his debut', 'He has not issued a single apology or acknowledgement of his actions'. Netizens also called out that this isn't his only case of cultural appropriation, as his wardrobe and style have also contributed to the issue. However, a handful of netizens have come out to defend the idol, with Twitter user @/PE0NYTAE commenting, 'He messed up the lyrics 'popping that boy I'm like a pac' so it sounds like 'poyilillapac'. He basically mumbled the lyrics'.
As of writing, neither ALLDAY PROJECT, THEBLACKLABEL, nor Tarzzan himself has yet to issue an explanation or apology for the matter. What do you think Tarzzan said in the video?

Lofi Girl finally graduates after seven years of non-stop studying

PETALING JAYA, July 31 — After seven years of hitting the books, Lofi Girl — the beloved animated figure behind the viral 'lo-fi hip hop radio – beats to relax/study to' YouTube stream — has finally wrapped up her studies. In a TikTok video shared on July 29 spotted by E! Online, the ever-studious character apparently swapped her signature headphones for a graduation cap, proudly holding a laptop that read, 'THE END'. The clip featured audio from Disney Channel's A.N.T. Farm: 'Finally, finished with all my homework. I don't know what I learned, but I know I'm done learning.' The internet, of course, rejoiced. YouTube's official TikTok account commented, 'girl congratulations and we MEAN THAT', while Duolingo Brazil chimed in with 'End of an era'. Lofi Girl has been a fixture on YouTube since 2018, looping endlessly in a cozy, Studio Ghibli-style animation as lo-fi beats played in the background. Her study sessions were briefly interrupted in 2020 and 2022 due to copyright complaints, but YouTube later restored the streams. The channel, originally known as ChilledCow, now boasts over 15 million subscribers. As for what's next? No one's sure — but for now, Lofi Girl is finally taking a well-earned break.

Their vibrant energy and dynamic style will seamlessly blend with FILA's iconic aesthetic, making for an unforgettable celebration. Known for their bold image and electrifying performances, KIIRAS brings a fresh spirit to the campaign. Their trend-setting presence perfectly complements FILA's classic athletic heritage.

Honouring FILA's tennis roots, the new collection highlights freedom, fluidity, and the pure joy of the game. Rather than focusing on competition, it embraces spontaneity and the playful spirit of the sport.

The upcoming launch will bring this spirit to life through an immersive celebration of creativity and motion. And with KIIRAS in attendance, fans can look forward to an engaging experience charged with the collection's dynamic vibe. Much like tennis itself, the event emphasises expression, connection, and living fully in the moment, rather than perfection. KIIRAS at 'LOVE:ALL Event Launch' In Malaysia Date: 2nd August 2025 (Saturday) 2nd August 2025 (Saturday) Time: 2pm – 4pm 2pm – 4pm Venue: FILA Sunway Pyramid, Subang Jaya While this is not a meet-and-greet event, fans will still get a rare chance to catch KIIRAS live.

Fans React To Alleged Scalper Reselling Insider Tickets To NCT DREAM's KL Concert

It's bad enough that fans have to contend with scalpers whenever a concert is announced. But what's even more frustrating is the suspicion that some tickets may have already been set aside for insiders linked to the concert organiser. This was one of the issues discussed regarding G-Dragon's recent concert in Kuala Lumpur. It seems that fans of a K-pop group may be facing a similar situation. One scalper has allegedly claimed to be reselling insider tickets to NCT DREAM (엔시티 드림)'s upcoming concert in Kuala Lumpur, despite the fact that official ticketing details have yet to be released. Here's what happened: As many fans will know, NCT DREAM are set to perform in Kuala Lumpur this December as part of their 'The Dream Show 4: Dream The Future' tour. Earlier this week, a Twitter user discovered that an alleged scalper from Indonesia was reselling insider tickets to the upcoming concert via Instagram Story, though the individual's username had been cropped out. According to the screenshot, the scalper claimed to be selling VIP standing tickets. As the official ticketing details have yet to be announced, the fan was understandably baffled as to how the scalper had managed to obtain the passes. This has raised suspicions that the individual may be an insider themselves, or at least connected to someone within the event's organising team. As expected, the post instantly went viral with many calling out Live Nation Malaysia, urging them to explain if this is true or if the scalper was simply trying to scam fans. Others requested that the Twitter user expose the scalper so they can be reported. Some have also urged the organiser not to follow in the footsteps of another local company that was previously accused of prioritising foreign attendees. At the time of writing, Live Nation Malaysia has yet to address the issue regarding the alleged scalper and the supposed insider ticket. The alleged scalper, however, who has now been identified, has since set their account to private following the exposure. Hopefully, this is simply another case of a scalper attempting to scam fans into purchasing a non-existent ticket. It wouldn't be the first time, as something similar occurred when BIGBANG's Taeyang announced his concert. What do you think? Source: Twitter
