Axl Rose calls Vladimir Putin a ‘little man’ for Ukraine

Axl Rose sharply criticized Vladimir Putin and acknowledged Ukraine’s “noble and horrifying fight” against the Russian president in an otherwise heartbreaking Guns N’ Roses tour update on Saturday July 16. The seesaw called Putin an “insensitive, lying, murderous little man”, according to Billboard and Rolling Stone.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, launched by Putin in February, led many rockers to react and several rock and metal bands to support the invaded country.

Elsewhere in Rose’s note summarizing Guns N’ Roses’ European leg of their 2022 trek which ended in Germany this week, the rock singer dedicated the tour to late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins. He also expressed his gratitude to country singer Carrie Underwood.

Hawkins died at age 50 in March. Underwood appeared on stage in the middle of the GN’R ride which saw Rose struggle with her vocals and visit a vocal coach.

Towards the end of Saturday’s message, Rose added, “I would also like to thank everyone for showing such love and support during the tour for the people of Ukraine and their noble and horrifying fight for freedom against a regime of increasingly totalitarian led by a ruthless, lying, murderous, little man of outdated ambitions and disregard for human life.”
