Rapper Curtis's Political Appearance Sparks Debate Over Values and Public Image

Budapest, Hungary – Hungarian rapper Curtis has recently become a focal point of public discussion following his participation in a pro-government "peace march" on October 27, 2025, an event organized by the Fidesz party. This appearance has drawn considerable commentary, notably from ZSHOWTIME host Osváth Zsolt, who critically analyzed the rapper's actions in a recent video.Zsolt's commentary underscores a perceived inconsistency in Curtis's public stance. He recalled Curtis's past dedication to drug prevention, stating, "He's the one who goes to schools to talk about how drugs are bad, and a few weeks ago, he tried to emphasize this with his song." The host then presented visual evidence, juxtaposing footage of Curtis performing at the politically charged rally with clips from his music video, which contains anti-drug messaging. This stark contrast has ignited a debate among viewers about the sincerity of public figures who engage in both social advocacy and political endorsements.Further adding to his critique, Zsolt highlighted the considerable value of Curtis's clothing and accessories worn at the event, estimating it to be around 20 million Hungarian Forints (approximately $55,000 USD). He sarcastically remarked on this display of wealth, questioning its alignment with any "restrained, bourgeois lifestyle" Curtis might now claim to embody. While offering a potential, albeit unconfirmed, explanation that Curtis might be acting to protect a loved one, Zsolt firmly stated, "For me, this is the only acceptable reason, when you are willing to compromise your principles to save a loved one." However, he maintained his critical stance on the perceived compromise of artistic independence for political affiliation, reflecting a broader public sentiment regarding the intersection of celebrity influence and partisan politics in Hungary.
