The controversy regarding Target and its LGBT children's clothing collection has reached the music mainstream. A song called 'Boycott Target,' performed by conservative rappers Forgiato Blow and Jimmy Levy with Nick Nittoli and Stoney Dudebro reached the No. 1 spot on the iTunes rap chart and No. 4 in the all-genre rankings.

Forgiato Blow shared a video on his Twitter account of Trumps Nephew thanking his audience for the support:

Thank you very much for supporting us. This is how we change the culture, this is how we change the evil that is happening to our children. It's a great song and I thank everyone who made it with me. Come on baby. The remix is coming soon. That's how we change this culture.

The single was released late last week and quickly reached the top of the Apple Music Store chart. The song has accumulated more than 238,000 views on the official YouTube account where it was posted.

Part of the music video was filmed in a physical store of the retailer. There, the performers are seen browsing the aisles of toys and children's clothing. Also in one shot, one of them can be seen carrying some packs of BudLight, the controversial beer brand that hired a trans influencer for its ads and has lost over$15.7 billion as a result.

The song's lyrics feature lines like, "They put a target on my back, but they're aiming at your kids and you know LGBTQ went too far, you know they're cutting these kids down, they're scarring transgender people."

Censorship of music

Blow denounced on the show Fox & Friends First, that the song was being censored on social networks. But at the same time, he commented that "facing censorship is nothing new" for him and that these are the risks one runs in trying to "change the culture."

They stripped me of my freedom of expression. A lifetime ban on Instagram, a lifetime ban on Facebook for talking about positivity. You know, when I was an artist before this, a degenerate rap artist, they didn't care if I rapped about negativity and demonizing America.

For his part, Levy denounced on Twitter that the song was being censored. He claimed that Instagram forced him to remove the link to the track from his account bio "so people can't get a copy of the track."

This is the BIGGEST censorship on a song I have ever witnessed in my life.

Single endorsements and Target controversy

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was one of the personalities who showed their support for the single. She tweeted the official music video for the song on Friday and so far it has garnered 1.4 million views:

American conservatives are proving once again who has the real buying power. It's not the woke mob, they just bully and riot.

Target has lost about $10 billion on its stock market value due to the launch of its Pride Month collection for kids just over a week ago. The merchandise included - among other garments - women's swimsuits that have "extra crotch space" and help hide male private parts.

Criticism rained down on the company and "#Target" trended on Twitter . There, users began calling for a boycott.
