Hungarian rapper Majka is facing renewed criticism for allegedly inciting violence during a performance at the Campus Festival last summer. The artist, known for his politically charged lyrics, performed his anti-government song "Csurran, Cseppent" at the festival.

Following the song, a collaborator on stage used a microphone, held upside down, to simulate shooting the rapper who was portraying the prime minister. This act has been interpreted by critics as a direct incitement to violence against the head of government.

The article suggests that Majka's actions are consistent with his public image, which it characterizes as aggressive and provocative. The piece implies that this incident is not an isolated event but rather a pattern of behavior from the artist, particularly in his public performances and political commentary.
