From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Open Season is a controversial anti-Jihadist song by American rapcore band Stuck Mojo. A recording of this song has been made available by the band as a free download.[1]
[edit] Controversy
Stuck Mojo stirred a major controversy when they released the video of Open Season (Stuck Mojo song) on YouTube, which had over 200,000 views.[1] Initially, the large number of views on YouTube put the video on the "Most Viewed" video charts on the service. The Youtube administrators then apparently blocked the video from appearing in the "Most Viewed" listings despite the viewing statistics.[2] The blogosphere picked this up, and a mixed reaction of condemnation[citation needed] and support[3] for the video, song and Stuck Mojo took off. Band leader and guitarist, Rich Ward, appeared as a guest on Fox News to discuss the video and the band's perceived anti-Islamist stance.[citation needed] The widely popular web site, iFilm.com, recently banned the video.[citation needed]
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has complained to the US government about the release of the video.[citation needed]
