‘Will absolutely not be streaming': Chloe Bailey blasted for song collab with 'serial abuser' Chris Brown

Fans of Bailey were not happy given Brown has a history of legal troubles and getting violent with women, including Rihanna in 2009

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Chloe Bailey has not been appreciated online after she revealed her new single with Chris Brown. Taking to Twitter, the 24-year-old songwriter, Bailey, posted, “2ND PIECE. HOW DOES IT FEEL @chrisbrown . 2/24 🫀,” which showed her posing intimately with the 33-year-old Brown. Both of the artists were seen in black in the photo.

However, fans of Bailey were not happy with her decision, given Brown has a history of legal troubles and getting violent with women, including Rihanna in 2009. He beat her so severely that the Barbadian singer suffered multiple injuries. Later in that year, Brown entered a plea deal and admitted to one count of felony assault, The New York Post had reported.

‘Public safety is one of our primary concerns’

Due to his criminal activity, even Brown’s visa to the UK was rejected. In 2010, England’s home office reportedly said, “We reserve the right to refuse entry to the UK to anyone guilty of a serious criminal offense. Public safety is one of our primary concerns. Each application to enter the UK is considered on its individual merits.”

The most recent accusation against the ‘Under The Influence’ singer was that “he drugged and raped her [a woman identified as ‘Jane Doe’] on Dec. 30, 2020, on a yacht in Miami,” PEOPLE reported. But the case was dismissed in August last year because of a “lack of prosecution”.

‘GOAT of domestic violence?’

Soon after the Twitter share, people started slamming Bailey, and when a supporter tweeted, “Because he’s the GOAT!” A critic fired back, “GOAT of domestic violence?” Another critic wrote, “Actually not ready for this.” The third one shared, “We will absolutely not be streaming. catch you next time tho.” Journalist Ernest Owens stated, “We're failing Black women in music if they feel like they have to collaborate with a known abuser in order to chart.”

“chloe bailey is coming out with a new song with chris brown. after everything he has done, why do women still give him grace?” a user questioned. Another user shared, “I’m so sorry but I can’t believe Chloe Bailey is collabing with Chris Brown? A serial abuser? I’m confused on why these women continuously give this man a pass…like it wasn’t just once it was multiple times?”

“Why do young artists shoot themselves in the foot like this?! We’re not listening to a collab with an abuser #ChloëBailey sorry girl! Choose better!” a tweet read and the second one added, “i love chloe bailey so so much, she’s my idol and she’s one of my biggest music inspirations as an aspirating artist. but why is she doing a song with chris brown?…i’m sure the label is responsible but jeez.”

‘Power of the CB’s’

However, there were some who defended the singers as a fan posted, “Wait I wanna hear this Chloe Bailey & Chris Brown song. Power of the CB’s.” Another fan wrote, “Chloe Bailey and Chris brown already rich dumb asses they don’t even need y’all support atp 😂.” “People are mad ’cause Chloe Bailey is making music with Chris Brown? Just a few months ago, folks were outraged his AMA performance was canceled. The innanet is a wild place. 😂,” the third one added.
