It was suppose to be a night filled with R&B, but there were some hiccups. Musiq Soulchild, Lyfe Jennings and K. Michelle were booked to perform last night (September 30th) at the Straz Center, downtown Tampa, FL. Hosted by Vybe Nation and 95.7 The Beat, K. Michelle was tapped as the first major artist to take stage following performances from several local acts, but according to reports, Michelle didn’t like her placement.
According to The Record Pusher, K. Michelle decided not to come out because she didn’t want to perform before Lyfe Jennings. After a 45-minute delay, which included boos and organizers trying to convince the “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star to take stage (see one clip here), Lyfe came out and gave the angry event-goers some soulful happiness. He also told the crowd that K. Michelle was backstage, but didn’t want to come out for some reason.
Following Lyfe’s set, K. Michelle was allegedly set to come out and at least say hi, but she reportedly left without doing so after fans began booing when they heard mentions of her name.
K. Michelle posted several tweets regarding the event before deleting them, while Lyfe Jennings on the other hand had something to say.
“This @kmichelle is so funny. She don’t wanna go on before me???? Before Lyfe??? Its cool i wish u the best love… We kilt it!!!” tweets Lyfe, who was also showing support for headliner Musiq Soulchild.
He adds: “Shout out to @musicsoulchild for being a hell of a performer AND a hell of a individual…im a fan of the real…period.”
Tampa fans were not pleased with K. Michelle’s recent performance, and Lyfe Jennings is speaking out about it. The Love & Hip Hop star failed to show up for her Tampa concert on Saturday night, leading to a chorus of boos from disappointed fans in the audience. Even more disheartening was that tickets had been sold weeks in advance – many people traveled long distances to be at the event. Lyfe wasn’t happy either; he called out K. Michelle publicly over social media for disrespecting the city and its supporters. It looks like there’s trouble brewing between these two artists – and we have all the details here! Keep reading to find out what happened when K. Michelle snubbed Tampa…
K. Michelle’s Performance In Tampa
K. Michelle’s visit to Tampa was marred by an unexpected show snub. Fans who had been expecting the Love & Hip Hop star to perform were left disappointed when she failed to make an appearance on stage.
The story quickly spread online, and rapper Lyfe Jennings took notice. He called out K. Michelle for not delivering on her promised performance in a post on Instagram: “Y’all paid money and didn’t get what you expected!”
Tampa fans showed their displeasure with loud booing as soon as it became clear that K. Michelle would not be performing at the event. The incident has sparked controversy among hip hop fans, leaving many wondering why the Love & Hip Hop star chose not to appear onstage at such an important gig.
Lyfe Jennings’ Response To The Snub
Lyfe Jennings was quick to respond and took to Instagram to express his outrage over K. Michelle’s snub of Tampa fans. He shared a passionate post with his followers, saying: “It’s not fair when someone takes your money and doesn’t deliver what they promised!” The rapper continued by condemning the Love & Hip Hop star for her lack of respect towards the people who paid good money to see her perform.
This statement drew further attention to the issue and sparked debate around whether or not artists should be held accountable for their actions onstage. Some argued that K. Michelle had every right to pull out of the show if she felt uncomfortable or unwell, while others were adamant that it was unacceptable behavior from an artist whose career is built on fan loyalty.
The incident highlighted how important it is for musicians to take into account their responsibility toward paying audiences and shows just how powerful social media can be in getting messages noticed – Lyfe Jennings’ call-out definitely made its mark!
Conclusion
My conclusion to this article is that K. Michelle’s performance in Tampa didn’t go as planned, and Lyfe Jennings wasn’t too pleased about it either. It’s clear that the fans were disappointed with how things went down, which resulted in them booing her off stage.
Lyfe called out the Love & Hip Hop star for not making an appearance at his show, and made sure people knew he was unhappy about the snub. He took a stand by expressing his opinion on social media so everyone would be aware of what happened.
At the end of the day, I think it’s important to remember that we should treat each other kindly regardless of our differences or disagreements – whether they’re personal or professional issues. All parties involved could have handled this situation better if there had been more understanding and respect between them all. Hopefully next time someone will take some extra time to listen to one another instead of rushing into judgement without knowing all sides of the story first!
