Hawk's "Blood Deck" was met with far less backlash than Lil Nas X's Satan shoes.

However, the rapper still feels the outrage
was actually for another reason.
Now that tony hawk has released
skateboards with his blood painted
on them, and there was no public outrage,
are y’all ready to admit y’all were never
actually upset over the blood in the shoes?

TMZ points out that despite the controversy,
the topic is nothing groundbreaking.
