This was my first thought - that this was a calculated stunt. Talent builds intrigue, but rage gets clicks. This is sad to see as it is, but if this is a genuine reaction, it’s even sadder.

I would never want anything to do with this artist, whether this was a genuine bad reaction or malicious. Just sad.
