What JLS and the Backstreet Boys can learn from Brockhampton

When one of Brockhampton's own was accused of rape, they kicked him out of the band and guess what? They are doing just fine
UPDATED SEP 14, 2018

After he was charged with rape on Friday, friends and colleagues of British pop star Oritsé Williams have been showering support for the singer on social media. The former JLS star allegedly raped a fan after a concert in Wolverhampton in December 2016. According to reports, the singer and his friend Jamien Nagadhana, both 31, allegedly attacked a 20-year-old waitress after inviting her to their hotel room along with one of her friends. While Williams has been charged with rape, Jamien faces a serious assault charge.

Former JLS singer Aston Merrygold called Williams the "nicest", "most humble", "caring", "selfless" and "hardworking" person he knew. He added that he "could go on" with the compliments.
