Amanda Seales has entered the group chat as she joins online debates regarding Donald trump’s inauguration ceremony performances and the Hip Hop community!
As we previously reported artists have received continuous backlash throughout social media following the shocking list of artists set to perform. Artists such as Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg and Soulja Boy have been called out by fans for their willingness to perform at Trump’s inauguration.
Fans have also voiced the tremendous amount of shock they feel as Nelly explained his decision to perform.
“This is not me telling you, ‘Yo, you should vote for this candidate.’ I think you should do your homework and figure out what best helps you and the people who you love and you provide for because I’m clueless on a lot of things when it gets down to it,” said Nelly.
“But what I will say is that, I respect the office. This isn’t politics. The politics, for me, is over. [Trump] won! He’s the president. He’s the commander in chief of what I would like to say is the best country in the world … It is an honor for me to perform for the president of the United States, regardless of who is in office.”
Nelly went on to explain that people who were criticizing him, didn’t understand that his decision to perform was based on his respect for The White House.
“If President Biden would’ve asked me to perform, I would’ve performed. If Vice-President Kamala Harris would’ve won and asked me to perform, I would’ve performed … I didn’t know that you was riding with me because you thought I would ride for who you voted for. I didn’t know that I had to agree with your political choices. If you follow what I do, this shouldn’t even be an argument.”
When asked if he was a Trump supporter, Nelly stated, “I support the president of the United States regardless of who is in office. Regardless, I respect the office.”
In response to Nelly’s viral statement’s Amanda referred to him as an idiot.
“Black folks saying performing is not supporting the current president are idiots.” She said while on Instagram live. “I’m not gonna be polite anymore about people being idiots. You’re an opportunist, you’re an idiot.”
Amanda expressed that Nelly lacked awareness. “He doesn’t know when to stay out of a topic he knows nothing about. I know when I don’t know what I’m talking about.”
