Section Boyz slam The Daily Mail for using their photo in a gang violence story

The Australian edition of the tabloid is apparently having trouble sourcing original images.

Section Boyz have hit out at The Daily Mail Australia for misappropriating one of their photos in a story about gang violence.

As ABC Media Watch points out, a feature about the Apex gang in Melbourne uses an image the “UK rap band” posted on Twitter back in October 2016.

Hey @DailyMailAU – your APEX gang pic is actually a UK rap band. Which we also we told you about last November. #mediawatch pic.twitter.com/SElOW8NU2s

The image has since been replaced – although Media Watch notes that this is not the first time the paper has made a similar mistake – but that did not stop the group from responding: “We are not happy with the way you have used our popular picture to slander another group that has nothing to do with us.”

@DailyMailAU we are not happy with the way you have used our popular picture to slander another group that has nothing to do with us. FIX UP

Not all is annoying for Section Boyz, however. Last night the group made a special guest appearance at London’s O2 at the first of eight Drake shows in the arena. Watch them perform ‘Lock Arff’ below.
