Jay Park (real name Park Jae Beom, 박재범) has become a trending topic in Malaysia this week – due to some controversial reasons!
The K-pop rapper sparked criticisms from Muslim music listeners after he included the name of Muslim God Allah in the lyrics of his song, “Mukbbang (Remix)”.
Tw // islamophobic
The fact that jay park also wrote this song just shows how disrespectful he is ,, when will these artists stop using islamic things for their aesthetics and hv a basic decency for our religion ? Its too normalized and got swept under the rug everytime :( pic.twitter.com/yyfuPIsyFP

Many were angered after Jay proclaimed himself to be a “young God” and called for everyone to “worship me like Allah” in the song, which was released back in December last year. In this case, not only was he heavily bashed for allegedly disparaging the Creator, the production team were also slammed for disrespecting the religion.
As a result, a lot of fans, especially Muslims, have taken to Twitter to vent their frustration towards the former 2PM member. “Jay Park is cancelled. Please block or unfollow me if you still choose to follow him. Thanks,” one Twitter user expressed.
“This is the nth time Korean artist disrespecting our religion, and now Jay Park too? What the f**k is wrong with y’all can you respect us at least? We’ve had enough,” another commentator chimed in. Apart from that, there were also a few who called local rapper Joe Flizzow out after they discovered that the former had recently collaborated with the “Girlfriend” singer.

Jay Park is an example of artists that say they respect all religions but all they do is talk. Just to get fan's support but in reality they're all the same. Other people's religion is just a toy for them.
