Professor Green REALLY doesn’t like Honey G

But why though?

This series of The X Factor has been hit by more dramz than your average Halloween episode of Hollyoaks. We at heat bloody love dramz, but even for us this is a bit much.

There's the ALLEGED porking on the stairs, the Welcome Party being some sort of mega orgy (there's a lot of bonking, basically), AND we swear the show has been hit with more 'IT'S A FIX' claims than ever before.

And there's Honey G.

Honey G

It's arguable that Honey G has divided the nation more than Marmite and Brexit put together, and things kicked off AGAIN this weekend.

After she cruised through the public vote during the results show (after a rendition of Men in Black by Will Smith the previous night), Professor Green had some strong words for her while appearing on The Xtra Factor.

He said: "I don't feel like she's should be in the competition.

"I feel like she's taking the right mickey out of rap and I feel like it's a bit of an injustice."

"It's an entertainment show but music is at the core of it, come on," he continued to Rylan Clark-Neal and Matt Edmunson.

OOOOH, SNAP.

But Twitter seemed to bloody love it.

One viewer wrote: "Didn't think I could love @professorgreen more than I already do...then he slates Honey G! Bout time it was said! Well done.#XtraFactor"

"So happy Professor Green just told it straight on the #XtraFactor that Honey G is taking the mick out of rap and she shouldn't be there"

But Honey G has attracted praise from the likes of Snoop Dogg and 50 Cent, so we're guessing she doesn't care that much.

"People be crazy saying Honey G's act is racist. For anybody who thinks a white person performing music of black origin is racist, you know they don't know what racism really is," 50 Cent said, according to The Mirror.

"She is entertaining, and I guarantee there is not going to be a hip-hop artist in the world who is going to be offended by her."
