Nearly 10 years after its release, Katy Perry‘s 2013 chart-topper – ‘Dark Horse’ – has ridden into another storm of controversy thanks to lyrics housed in the portion rapped by its feature, Juicy J.
Although EMMY Award-winning actor Evan Peters continues to win praise for his transformation into the 80’s serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer aboard Netflix’s September 21-released mini-series ‘Dahmer,’ the gruesomeness of the latter’s crimes – as he was arrested in 1991 – is being placed front-and-center for an entire new generation via the gory show.
Because of this, some music lovers have taken to social media to slam work like ‘Horse’ that referenced Dahmer’s acts in a positive or minimized light.
In Perry’s tune, found aboard her chart-topping album ‘Prism,’ Juicy utters: “She’s a beast/ I call her Karma/ She eats your heart like Jeffrey Dahmer.” Now, people are calling for her to take accountability for the insensitive line.
Katy’s not the only Pop diva battling backlash due to a Dahmer reference. Kesha, thanks to lyrics found inside her 2010 tune ‘Cannibal,’ is also under fire for comparing herself to Jeffrey.
“I want your liver on a platter / Use your finger to stir my tea / And for dessert I’ll suck your teeth / Be too sweet and you’ll be a goner / Yeah, I’ll pull a Jeffrey Dahmer,” she croons on tune from her EP of the same name.
As a result, she landed on the radar of critics as well – with some even calling for ‘Cannibal’ and ‘Dark Horse’ to be pulled from airwaves.
At writing, Kesha nor Katy have responded to the hoopla.
Your thoughts?

Bunch of p*ssies and sensitive trash cans nowadays that let something as a simple lyric get under their skin. “i’ll eat your heart like Jeffrey Dahmer” Now go cry in the corner & f*ck yourself while at it
Haha! 10 yrs?? Fkkk
Shut up you dumb Nigg*r. My king Trump allows me to say whatever I want, whenever I want. If woke b*****es like Katy & Kesha want to be nonstop woke, I can rip them when they say stuff they would rip others for. Dumb NIGGURR…
Im no black you stupid inbred racist imbecile. Im sure you married to your sister white trash
This fake woke crap is starting to be nice unbearable at this point!
Seriously, why did parents of Gen Z kids teach them NOTHING about anything? You JUST found out who Jeffrey Dahmer is?! Girl 😭😭😭
Leave Kesha💜 and Katy alone. It’s used for f*cking song lyrics. If you have a problem with the song simply don’t listen to it. Don’t trash talk them online for not be super sensitive little B*tches like yourselves
spend your energy on something else other than starting keyboard wars over old songs. jfc.
Why would she make a song about cannibalism? 🤔 Hmm
So all of a sudden it’s a problem since a popular series debuted on Netflix? Dahmer’s first victim was over 40 years ago. He’s been dead for almost 30 years. Pop culture (unfortunately) has been referencing him for over 3 decades. This generation is full of wimps. Get the f*** over it.
Yall need to get a life. Jeffrey Dahmers stuff happened 40 years ago if you are just now hearing about him you need to be doing something other then bashing song lyrics.. LEARN SOMETHING EDUCATIONAL!!! I love kesha and Katy and both of these songs are in all of my Playlist. My only problem with them is it’s been 10 years??!!! I feel old. Lol
Haha
Late assmotherfuckers
Simply unacceptable. I have already signed some petitions to have these songs removed from streaming services and would suggest YOU do the same.
Good God, what is wrong with people these days? I consider myself a sensitive person but this? Who will get canceled next? Bey & Jay-Z? Because you know, Bonnie & Clyde were robbers and mass murderers.
