Indian-origin Canadian rapper Tommy Genesis faces backlash for dressing as Goddess Kali: 'Deliberately chose to mock Hinduism'
Indian-origin Canadian rapper Tommy Genesis slammed for mocking Hinduism and Christianity in her latest album.

Canadian rapper Tommy Genesis’s Indian-origin was dragged as she received a massive backlash for her music video True Blue in which she dressed as Goddess Kali. Both Hindus and Christians slammed the music video as dressed as Goddess Kali, the singer provocatively posed with a Christian cross. Indian rapper Raftaar publicly condemned the video on Instagram, calling it a “mockery of my religion” and urging fans to report it on YouTube.Tommy Genesis, also known as Genesis Yasmine Mohanraj, was born in Canada to a Malayali-Tamil-Swedish family. Her father, Mohanraj, is a Tamil-Malayali Christian who emigrated from India to Canada when he was young. His parents, Tommy Genesis’s grandparents, were a scientist and a nurse who moved to Canada in response to a newspaper ad seeking professionals in their fields. Tommy Genesis’ mother is of Swedish descent.Tommy is known for her provocative, genre-defying music that explores themes of gender, identity, and sexuality, often describing herself as a “fetish rapper.” She gained prominence in the underground rap scene, with Dazed magazine labeling her “the internet’s most rebellious underground rap queen” in 2016“Tommy Genesis, from a Tamil-Malayali Christian background, mocks Hindu symbols in her “True Blue” video for shock value. This isn’t art, it’s cultural insult, plain and shameless,” a social media comment said. “bro i’m not even a hindu or a christian but this was so uncomfortable to watch like it just feels so off. what’s with the mindset of mocking other religions culture and beliefs for clout? the insane part is that tommy genesis is an indian plus the song and music is just AWFUL,” another wrote. “Her character in the latest track TRUE BLUE is described as “Freak Of India” on the posters as you can see on the top of the poster below. Her ancestors were priests. Her father is a converted Christian. So she is apparently angry on hindus for the way they treated her father and then she is also angry on christians as they did not allower her in the church because she is a queer. And she made this video mocking both the religion,” one wrote.
