Teen First Person To Be Arrested For Listening To Rap In Australia
A 19-year-old teen will test Australia’s laws as the first person to be charged with offensive behavior, for listening to rap music.
Nathan Michael Wilkie was charged with offensive behavior as he waited in his car listening to Australian rapper Kid Selzy, while his mother was grocery shopping.
Police heard Wilkie listening to an explicative filled song, which they deemed offensive and derogatory towards women.
The Herald Sun reports that the case will go to trial in June, where Wilkie is expected to plead not guilty to the offense.
Kid Selzy himself plans to attend the trial, after Wilkie’s mother posted a message on his Myspace page.
Watch the video for Kid Selzy’s “Children Of The Damned.”
