Emtee has found himself under a lot of fire on social media over the last few months.
The rapper, who’s been having great success with his music, seems to rub some people the wrong way – especially on Twitter.
A few months ago, the rapper got people up in arms after tweeting that he doesn’t want to be addressed as “fam” or “bro” by people that he doesn’t know.
That offended quite a lot of tweeps and they, of course, took to the social network to share their thoughts.
Emtee: don’t call me Bro or fam if I don’t know you
Next tweet

He also came under fire during the Penny Sparrow racism saga, when he tweeted that the race topic is a “throwback”. It looks like the Metro FM Music Awards nominee will not be getting any votes from some people, because of his tweets.
Guys don’t forget, Emtee said Racism is a throw back. #MMA15 😊😊😊😊😊😊

The rapper has admitted that he has a flaw. In a recent interview with Slikouronlife, he said: “I tweet what I feel immediately. I don’t take time to think about it, like I go in. If I’m undergoing a certain situation, like right now, I’m gon’ tweet about it right now. It’s all in the moment.”
He said he’s trying to show people that it doesn’t matter if they’re (musicians) making music and they’re all over the place, as at the end of the day, “we’re all human”.
The rapper also added that growing up he was bullied a lot.
