Yep. John Singleton does tend to be kind of all over the place.

Could it also be possible that Remy was not a hardcore skinhead like the other skinheads were? He was still a newbie in their circle and was probably already a fan of theirs before he joined.

Back in 95, RATM wasn't as well known as they are today and few knew what they stood for. Even if Remy was a fan of theirs he probably never paid attention to their lyrics, just their beats. Most likely John Singleton just wanted some angry white boy music like others in the post had said.

Probably right, but RATM are specifically known for being a rap/rock group.

It's obvious Singleton has no clue who made up the band Outside Morello who is bi-racial, so is the singer whose father is famed Chicano artist Robert de la Rocha.. Also the drummer Wilks is Jewish.

Congressmen Paul Ryan, Mr. conservative, claims that he's a big fan of RATM. I'm fairly certain his political philosophy is different from theirs.
Ever listen to In Bloom by Nirvana? Same idea.

I think it was to suggest Remy's confusion and also state that he was not really what he was trying to be.
Don't come for me unless I send for you. There is consequence.

Maybe Jon Singleton didn't want to put a Skrewdriver song in the movie.
