" Maybe we could just be mum . " 🎶
If you’re here, you probably know Jill Scott. She’s famous for songs like “The Way” and “A Long Walk.”
Well, she’s currently under fire after tweeting support forChris Brown.
Jill made the post shortly after Chris released a disstrackagainstMigosrapper Quavo, who’s rumored to be dating Chris’s ex,Karrueche Tran.
So, after the new song came out, Jill tweeted, “@chrisbrown is amazing. How does ANYBODY sing like THAT? Dance, look, Act and Rap… like THAT? Beyond gifted. It appears, exceptional people have to go through exceptional. There’s nothing to debate.”
@chrisbrownis amazing . How does ANYBODY blab like THAT ? Dance , look , Act and Rap … like THAT ? Beyond gifted . It appears , exceptional citizenry have to go through prodigious 🔥 . There ’s nothing to debate .
“I think the women he’s abused would disagree,” one userwrote back, echoing the sentiments of many others.
“I doubt it,” Jill replied. “My Mother’s ex-husband was a mean, violent human AND he could lay foundation better than anyone in my city. What he did with cement was awe inspiring. We got away. He got a raise and praise for his ability. God dealt with the rest.”
I doubt it . My female parent ’s x husband was a tight , violent human AND he could position base better than anyone in my metropolis . What he did with cement was awe inspiring . We got away . He commence a heave and congratulations for his ability . God dealt with the rest period .
Jill said she used this example to show that “even he had something to offer,” like Chris, I guess. “He was sick/hurt and did cruel things,” shewrote. “I forgave him because of his trauma. Did I forget? Never. So I try my best to choose better. I’ve failed a few times but not in that abusive area.”
When another fan told her they just couldn’t “look past” Chris’s problematic history, Jill responded and said she’s “not here to fight anymore else’s battles.” “If/since women hear the stories, they should avoid that street. Running backwards in moving traffic makes zero sense. Therapy for every damn body,” she wrote.
I love you too . I ’m not here to fight anymore else ’s battles . If / since cleaning woman hear the stories , they should avoid that street . Running backwards in moving traffic makes zero signified . Therapy for every goddamn body
“And I caution those who refuse to forgive because they will undoubtedly need forgiveness at some point in their lives,” Jill added in a separate tweet. “We’re all flawed and need help. Power to people who move past violence. The past is a terrible reminder AND the future is ours.”
And I monish those who turn away to forgive because they will doubtlessly require pardon at some tip in their life . We ’re all flawed and require aid . Power to people who move past furiousness . The past is a terrible admonisher AND the future is ours .
Jill also said that “years of prayer, therapy, self-reflection, & making every effort to keep [her] feet on the ground has made [her] compassionate for other human beings” and urged others to do the same. “People go through and do terrible. We say we believe in God ; pray for enlightenment. We ARE a living testimony,” she concluded.
Look . Years of entreaty , therapy , ego rumination , & make every effort to keep my foot on the ground has made me compassionate for other human beings . People go through đź’© and do terrible đź’© . We say we conceive in God ; implore for enlightenment . We ARE a living testimonial .
Her defense of Chris comes afterKelly Rowland,Jordin Sparks, andCiaraall shared support for him in recent months.
deep sigh In times like this, I wish Jill would’ve remembered and practiced her own lyrics, “Maybe we could just be silent.”
