Oh, millennials and their drama. A new feud has broken out between buzzed-about rapper Tyler The Creator and Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes over a t-shirt design for Oli's fashion line. Yes, this is real. Let's dive into this silliness:
ThePRP points out it all started when Skyes released this t-shirt design:
The thing is, that message is a modified version of some of Tyler the Creator's lyrics "kill people burn shit fuck school" from the track "Radicals." Tyler, who is ever the eloquent 22 year old, got wind of this and took to Twitter to express his frustration:
THAT KID WITH RADICAL LYRICS ON HIS SHIRT IS SOME TUMBLR FAG FUCK HIM DONT USE MY SHIT PUSSY

Oli seems to not be too bothered by it, readily admitting he ripped off the lyrics:
Who gives a shit. Nothing of me is original. I am the combined effort of everyone I've ever known & everything I have ever seen.

OH SHIT, IT'S ON NOW!!!! WEST COAST VS. EAST SIDE OF LONDON!! THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!
All joking aside, apparently, Oli has a knack for ripping off other people's ideas, as other shirts in his fashion line rip off Lamb of God lyrics and even Attila lyrics of all things.
It's one thing to be inspired by another artist, but this seems like blatant stealing, and he's not even trying to cover it up. What are your thoughts on the situation?
