Moz has sparked a new round of controversy and speculation that he's racist by saying 'You can't help but feel that the Chinese are a subspecies. in the context of talking about animal rights abuses in China. Why he couldn't have just said 'some chinese, like some people everywhere, are subhuman scum for the way they treat animals instead of libelling a whole nation is beyond me but there you go that's what he said.

Here's a few more of his eyebrow raising comments from down the years.

"all reggae is vile"

In his song Bengali in platforms he controversially sings 'life is hard enough when you belong here'. Thereby implying the character in the song doesn't belong in the uk.


Q: Do you think people are innately racist?
Moz-"Yes. I don't want to sound horrible or pessimistic but I don't really think, for instance, black people and white people will ever really get on or like each other. I don't really think they ever will."


In 1992 he appeared on stage wrapped in a union jack the same year he released a song called The national front disco, which resulted in him being bottled off the stage and a front cover headline in the next issue of NME headlined 'Is Morrissey racist?'

In 2007 he did his first interview with NME for 15 yrs. which caused controversy and litigation. During the interview he said '"Britain's a terribly negative place. And it hammers people down and it pulls you back and it prevents you. Also, with the issue of immigration, it's very difficult because although I don't have anything against people from other countries, the higher the influx into England the more the British identity disappears."
