 An open letter questioning the lack of media condemnation of Okonma's lyrics, written by Sara Quin of the Canadian pop duo Tegan and Sara shortly after the release of "Goblin", spurred additional debate and provoked comments ranging from supportive of Quin's message to labeling her as racist.The commentator Emma Jane describes the harassment of two Australian activists critical of Okonma's lyrics, spurred by Okonma naming them on Twitter.Fans of the rapper targeted the women with rape and death threats in response to reports that they sought to have Okonma barred from the country, in what Jane cites as exemplary of "the way high profile figures are able to inciteeither intentionally or otherwiselarge fan bases to engage in mob attacks on named women".A series of three commercials for Mountain Dew directed by Okonma created controversy in May 2013, accused of using "racial stereotypes" and "making light of violence against women".
