Chingy drops out of Red White & Rock concert after intense backlash
Rapper Chingy has pulled out of his scheduled performance at the Log Cabin Republicans’ Red White & Rock concert in Nashville, Tennessee, after facing severe criticism on social media ¹ ² ³. The event, set for September 29, was designed to support LGBT conservatives and featured prominent MAGA figures like Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle.
Initially, Chingy defended his decision to perform, stating that his job is to entertain and get paid, not to worry about politics ¹ ² ⁴. However, after continued backlash, he had a change of heart and announced his withdrawal from the event ¹ ² ³. Chingy clarified that he’s not a Trump supporter and only cares about his music and fans ¹ ²[4).
