The thing is she never said she supported him or voted for him. She said she performed because she felt like he needed to see and understand the other sides perspective. It’s not like she went around Asking people to vote for him. As a fan of her music and as a Hillary supporter she didn’t offend me at all and I think people need to stop with the mob mentality. Social media has really created a society full of monsters looking to attack anyone for any reason.

The drags and reads are some of the best think pieces I've read in under 140 characters.

"You're not entitled to the Black community's unconditional support."
Yup. I never knew anything about her as a person until this year, and she doesn't come off very bright to me.

She's mad because people are not supporting Tina's tour. Well, Tina and Chrisette made their choices, and so did the audience. In the end, it's all about choices and consequences.

This is the epitome of “what did you think was going to happen?”
Just like how they want respect for the very public choices they made, they need to respect other people’s choice to publicly criticize and/or withdraw support from them and their art because of it.
That aside, I find her using her miscarriage, suicidal thoughts and being dropped as sympathy cards to be extremely tacky. As a human, I have compassion for those situations and would not wish them on anyone but it’s pretty clear that her reasons for revealing this information and her timing of it all stem from a very self-serving, ignoble place.

Look, you can be dumb, or you can be arrogant; you can't be both. Chrisette needs to pick one lane and stay in it.
I don't have nearly as much of a problem with her singing for Trump (though it was objectively a boneheaded career move) as I do with her trying to cover it with a veneer of intellect that she quite simply does not have, then getting in her feelings because the 1.2% of the universe that cared to pay attention to her dragged her for it. If getting her ass summarily handed to her can't bring her an ounce of humility or self-reflection or at least an interest in swinging by B&N to pick up The Art of Persuasion, I really don't know what else can be done for her. And the miscarriage as sympathy card (of which even the truth of it is in question because she got called out for swiping a pic from Google images to accompany it, deleted all comments checking her for it, and eventually deleted that post altogether without acknowledgement) is just...this woman really has no self-awareness or sense of social cues whatsoever.

Yeah, I liked her a lot more before she started talking. R&B Divas was the first offering of her being a self-serving cunt, and this just further cements it for me.
She didn't get backlash JUST for singing at the inauguration. She got it because she tried to rationalize it with some fake-optimistic agenda about why she was doing it "for the people." Had she just been real and said "fuck him, but I'mma get this money" then at least she could have kept an ounce of respect. But then after the inauguration, she came out complaining about how HE DIDN'T EVEN SPEAK TO OR ACKNOWLEDGE her; which just proved everyone who doubted her choice right.
Now she wants to point the finger at the same community who gave a fuck enough about her to say WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS A MISTAKE, AND WE CAN'T STAND BY IT, and try to victimize herself for the lack of support she's getting now. GIRLFVCKINGBYE. It's pathetic that she would stoop so low as to use a miscarriage and suicide to garner sympathy, and sell a shitty song that nobody cares about. She's canceled.

Oh yeah, and she's in the news today because the picture she used to discuss her alleged miscarriage was taken from a damn google search.

Meh. I like the No chorus part, but not into the preachy verses.

Wow talk about a surprise, I thought this wasn’t happening due to this era being quiet. Considering how her mixtapes have all being in the past, I’ll definitely check this out.

Datpiff!? She couldn't even get a meeting with EOne? I've never loved any of her albums, but she's had some amazing highlights here and there. I'll give it a spin.

I still love her first album. She still sounds great in the works that followed, but never as sincere, humble and classy. I feel like she has grown into an extremely narcissistic person after Epiphany reached #1.

The iTunes version (as with Spotify) does not include "Party at My House" for some reason.

Party at My House Vegas Blue Out of Control Strong Black Woman
I really tried to separate the music from the "message," which is a total joke to be preached by someone in her position.

I thought her new song is a nice return to form for her.

It’s nice. She said her new music will have more of a Gospel feel to it without being prototypical.

What a fall from grace. Looking back, I do feel like social media went way in on her.
