"Malaysian singer and songwriter, Namewee who recently caused controversy with his latest song, Fragile (玻璃心) has created his own NFTs. According to the artist in his latest YouTube video, ""Using NFTs to Fight the World"", the idea of opening an NFT account was ""to counter the intermediaries"" and secure ownerships of items such as art. What stood out to Namewee (pictured) in NFT, was how the content was safe from censorship, where no authority, including himself, had any right to the content sold once someone owns it.  In conjunction with the theme of using NFT as a stand against the world order, the artist took 20 pictures of him making rude gestures at banking cooperations and commercial enterprises. These pictures were then uploaded on his NFT channel and were sold out within three hours. In a Facebook post, the singer also addressed the issue of NFT and said he was selling his ""own hard-to-work work for a good price”. As for the individuals who possess the ability to hype these works to make ten times more money, Namewee adds that this was their ability and not his.  The singer then took to release 100 copies of the song, Fragile (玻璃心) on the NFT marketplace, OpenSea. "
