American rapper Tyler, the Creator was banned from the UK back in the summer of 2015… but why?
It’s a serious ban as he may not be able to come into the country until 2020. This is because exclusion, ordered by the home secretary, is reviewed ‘every three to five years’.
The musician, real name Tyler Gregory Okonma, was told the lyrics on two of his albums, Bastard and Goblin, posed a threat to the safety of the British public.
This meant he could not perform at some planned shows in the UK.
