“As a DJ, it is normal to receive song requests, especially during a bottle parade,” read the DJ’s statement posted Friday. “In this instance, I received an Airdrop titled ‘HH’, with no indication of the song’s context. After playing the song it became clear that the lyrics were offensive. As soon as I realized the songs [sic] nature, I was stunned and shocked and immediately looked for another song to switch to.”

The DJ wrote that he takes “full responsibility” for the incident and “should have listened to the song or asked about its content before playing it.”

“I sincerely apologize to anyone who has been offended by the playing of this song, especially to my family and friends in the Jewish community,” he wrote.

    I didn’t know the song was offensive, don’t know how it entered my library!

    What a bunch of marigold flowers, any sign of trouble and they immediately backtrack. If they’re going to be horrible people, at least have the courage to admit it. There’s plenty of scum who would associate with them regardless.

      • Random person I’ve never heard of does a bad thing.
      • Immediately apologizes, explains it was an accident, and commits to ensuring the problem doesn’t occur again.
      • What a nazi.

        Definitely a Nazi for not knowing what HH means. Don’t forget he also said he has friends in the Jewish community. That means he might be a Zionist sympathizer, which is practically a Nazi these days.
