Irish rappers Kneecap denied supporting a proscribed group after member Liam O’Hanna was charged with a “terror” offence for allegedly displaying a Hezbollah flag during a London concert. The group, known for their confrontational style and political messaging, claimed they are victims of “political policing” and criticized the establishment for diverting attention from the suffering in Gaza. While facing scrutiny and cancelled performances, prominent musicians have defended Kneecap, who assert they do not support violence or banned organizations.
