Wireless Festival has been cancelled, following the government's decision to block Kanye West's permission to travel to the UK. The American rapper, who's now known as Ye, was due to headline the festival in Finsbury Park in the summer. He has a long history of antisemitic comments and actions, including writing a song glorifying Adolf Hitler. Mr West has blamed this on a brain injury and missed Bi-polar diagnosis. He has apologised and says he has reached out to the Jewish community in the UK. On this episode of The Fourcast, Keme Nzerem is joined by Dr. Toby Greene from the Board of Deputies of British Jews and music journalist Yemi Abiade.
His teammates love him, but opposition players? Not so much. Toby Greene is the AFL's anti-hero and that's just the way he likes it. But that doesn't mean being the bad guy doesn't come at a cost. In this interview, Greene explains the toll it takes on his family, talks leadership, and why he wasn't scared by Adam Kingsley's viral spray in a new documentary series.
