LONDON - The BBC is under fire today for airing a rap song written by an Islamic convert that compares Queen Elizabeth II with Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein and calls the US the 'Devil'.

The song, which has been played on DJ Zane Lowe's Radio 1 'Evening Session' and also accuses the Royal Family of murdering Princess Diana, is called 'Great Britain' and is written and performed by rapper Scor-Zay-Zee.

The song hits out at British way of life and says that British youth are being "brainwashed and put in a daze" by consumer culture.

"Slavery made the riches of Great Britain, the queen wears stolen diamonds, her husband's a Freemason, they killed Lady Di. The Queen lives in an house like Saddam Hussein. They're both rich so I guess they are one and the same," a verse from the song says.

Rightwing watchdog Mediawatch UK has called for the BBC to ban the song and take it off the air. Mediawatch UK says there is no good reason for the corporation to be playing the song.

John Beyer, the director of Mediawatch UK, told the Sunday Telegraph: "The BBC should not be playing this song. There is no justification for giving airspace to something as offensive as this."

The four-minute song also attacks Britain's support for Israel and calls the US "the Devil."

Well... Saddam(was) and the Queen are both people who just live off of their riches benefitting themselves only and not trying to change or improve the world...

Money corrupts...

Whilst I have more than a little problem with our Monarchy, If the guy doesnt like it he knows where he can go cos im part of the british youth an am quite happy at our lifestyle.

Ive had enough of these kind of people like that cleric abu hamza in London.

If they dont like it they know where to go.

Wow....hmm....the "verse" they gave from the other side is totally stupid and lame...i cant imagine this guy even being a remotely good rapper so why doesnt everyone laugh him off like vanilla ice or milli vanilli
