Fan Defense and the Cancel Culture Debate
Brown’s fans were quick to defend Monét and criticize the ongoing negativity directed at those who support the controversial artist. One fan highlighted the discrepancy between online cancel culture and real-world popularity, stating, “Chris Brown is not ‘canceled’ offline. In actuality, he is very loved and celebrated. When I say I don’t listen to him, I’m constantly met with ‘that’s his past blah blah blah.’ People who don’t engage with his music are the minority.”

Another fan criticized the obsession with canceling Brown, arguing, “Y’all obsession with Chris Brown is weird. If you don’t like him, don’t listen to his music and mute his name on here. Y’all have a habit of thinking y’all can bully somebody into doing what YOU want them to do, and it’s strange. No wonder y’all always mad on here, y’all always complaining about something you have absolutely no control over.”
