Johnson Is: Last News

The Kunts release their attempt at a Jubilee Number One with ‘Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty Nonce’. Check it out below, along with our interview with frontman K.The Kunts’ previous two singles, ‘Boris Johnson Is A Fucking C**t’ and ‘Boris Johnson Is STILL A Fucking C**t‘, both reached number five in the UK singles chart in 2020 and 2021 respectively as they attempted to score a Christmas Number One.Now, the Essex punks are attempting a Number One single in time with the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations next week with a new single that lampoons The Duke Of York.

The Kunts have announced their new single ‘Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty Nonce’, which is being released to tie in with the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee next month.The Kunts’ previous two singles, ‘Boris Johnson Is A Fucking C**t’ and ‘Boris Johnson Is STILL A Fucking C**t‘, both reached Number Five in the UK singles chart in 2020 and 2021 respectively, when they attempted to score a Christmas Number One.Now, the Essex punk band will release their new “jaunty sing-a-long” on May 27 via their own Radical Rudeness label.The song’s title and subject matter both disparagingly refer to the Duke Of York, who is the third child of the Queen, after he stepped down from royal duties in the wake of a civil sexual assault case that was recently brought against him in the US by Virginia Giuffre.Andrew, who repeatedly denied allegations that he sexually assaulted Giuffre when she was 17, reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre in February.

Having had two unsuccessful attempts to secure the Christmas number one in the last two years, The Kunts have announced a campaign to secure the number two spot in the singles chart as The Queen celebrates her Platinum Jubilee. Still to be unveiled, the track they hope will achieve that feat will be a ditty called ‘Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty Nonce’.As confrontational songs to coincide with royal celebrations go, it does make the Sex Pistols’ ‘God Save The Queen’ – which got to number two during the Queen’s Silver Jubilee in 1977 – seem a bit twee.The band say that the song “is intended to re-open the conversation around [The Queen’s] son Prince Andrew’s conduct at this time when the establishment appear to want it swept under the carpet.
