About This Trend

Kneecap is an Irish hip hop trio from West Belfast, Northern Ireland, composed of members Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap, and DJ Próvaí. The group is known for their politically charged lyrics and high-energy performances.

The trio is currently trending due to a controversy surrounding footage where they allegedly called for the death of British MPs, which is now under assessment by counter-terrorism police. Additionally, they have faced backlash from media figures like FOX News and Sharon Osborne following their Coachella performance, which included politically charged messages. The group claims to be facing a coordinated smear campaign since their Coachella appearance. .
