British pop singer Dua Lipa has reportedly dropped her Jewish agent for signing onto a letter to remove the anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian Irish rap group Kneecap from the Glastonbury music festival.
The development comes as a growing number of musical acts are seeking to block streaming services from letting their songs play in Israel, in what they hope will turn into a music-industry cognate of the burgeoning Film Works for Palestine boycott of Israeli film institutions.
Dua Lipa’s longstanding agent, David Levy, was one of the first signatories on a leaked letter to Glastonbury’s organizers to remove Kneecap, whose singer is currently facing terrorism charges in the United Kingdom for allegedly displaying a Hezbollah flag at a concert.
