“My mind is blown too because the level of disrespect and utter ignorance of all 3 parties involved is astounding. I heard about this the same way everyone else did. Nothing is ever as it seems, some of the people in this business have no soul or integrity and they have everyone fooled.”
So far, the singer’s frustration comes as one fan shared that they love the new collaboration with Kelis and Beyonce. However, the star replied in the comments that it was not a collab.
