Canadian rapper bbno$ (Alexander Gumuchian) has used a pro-trans lyric on his new track "BING BONG"
In the song, bbno$ raps the line: “F*ck yo' agenda, protect them dolls."
"Protect the Dolls" is a reference to a term for transgender women. The word "doll" has long been used within the LGBTQIA+ community as endearment for trans women.
The phrase was recently popularised by a t-shirt designed by Conner Ives, which has been worn by allies like Pedro Pascal and Tilda Swinton.
Sales of the T-shirt have helped raise funds for transgender non-profits, such as Trans Lifeline.
