Others

The Norwegian rap duo Karpe Diem attacked Anundsen in 2015 in their song Lett å være rebell i kjellerleiligheten din ( German : easy to be a rebel in your basement apartment ) and called him a coward. The lyrics of the song are about opinions and hateful comments in Norwegian society about asylum seekers and immigrants. During his time as Minister of Justice, Anundsen was also responsible for immigration policy. He responded to the song by criticizing the duo for oversimplifying the subject. According to Anundsen, however, it is still an honor to be named such well-known musician in a song.
