The rebellious rapper Machine Gun Kelly claims that he was kicked off a plane at a Dallas-area airport because he had "cuss words" written on his guitar case.
"I was just escorted off the airplane by police at the Dallas airport because of the writing on my guitar case," wrote the rapper, whose real name is Richard Colson Baker. "They had the nerve to compare the fact that there are a couple of cuss words written on it to the seriousness of 9/11. When I told them its my art, they told me 'that's not art' and proceeded to go on some 'George Bush is a saint and I'm disrespecting his country'-type rant."
He added: "FUCK YOU MR. TSA MAN, FUCK YOUR PRECIOUS GEORGE BUSH, AND FUCK YOUR NARROW MIND," and said the airport's security officials "should be honored that u even got to touch my guitar case."
"Hope your kids are MGK fans, buy tickets to a show to watch me play that guitar, and post pictures of the case hashtagging about how dope the art on it is," he wrote.
In a second Instagram image about the incident, Baker writes, "Don't ever let someone tell you what "art" is or isn't. Express yourself," and includes a call for fans to preorder his latest album.
