Bambie Thug has dedicated a performance of The Cranberries’ ‘Zombie’ at Download Festival to the people of Palestine.

The artist, who memorably represented Ireland at this year’s Eurovision, played the Apex Stage at the Donington festival yesterday (June 14) and took the time to highlight the cause that is close to their heart.

After singing the track ‘Trash’ from inside a wheelie bin, Bambie said, “You know what else is trash? Governments that allow genocides to happen. Our voices are more important than ever.”

They then played a cover of ‘Zombie’, a song about the innocent victims of political violence, before rounding off the song with a cry of “Free Palestine”.

Bambie had previously shared a recorded version of the cover earlier this year, which you can listen to below.

"Listen to your ppl take and the bros TOld me !!" he wrote earlier today. It appears as though he's trying to insinuate that his friends, including the late Takeoff, gave him some kind of warning about getting into a relationship with Cardi B. This is unconfirmed, and could certainly just be his attempt at dissing her. The cryptic message has prompted mixed reactions from social media users in the Hollywood Unlocked comments section. While some can't blame him for being frustrated, others think he had it coming considering his own past. Most can agree, however, that mentioning Takeoff was a step too far.

"What did the bros say when u was cheating on ya wife???" one Instagram commenter wonders. "Don’t bring Takeoff into your mess sir," another writes. What do you think of Offset posting a cryptic Tweet after his heated online back-and-forth with Cardi B? Do you agree that he went too far by mentioning Takeoff?
