Ari Lennox, Who Experienced Similar Treatment From Fans, Speaks Out in Support of Flo Milli
Dreamville Records artist and singer Ari Lennox came to Flo Milli’s defense after Air saw the videos of Flo being mistreated by fans. On Sunday (May 5), Ari made two posts on her Instagram Story, which can be seen below, to share the similar experience she endured from toxic fans while opening for Rod Wave back in October.
“Flo Milli I’m sorry this happened to you,” she wrote. “You are beautiful and incredibly talented woman. Some of these people can be so damn cruel.”
Lennox then went on to criticize Rod Wave’s “evil” and “demonic” fans for hurling objects at her during multiple opening sets on Rod’s Nostalgia Tour.
“Maybe I could’ve gotten over some of Rod Wave’s, evil, racist and demonic fans, but what made it even worse is Rod saying nothing in my defense. Privately or publicly,” Ari said.
Rico Nasty also had a similar experience while opening for Playboi Carti on his King Vamp Tour in 2021. Carti didn’t come out with a written statement in Rico’s defense, but he did appear on stage with Rico during the tour, which seemed to show a sign of solidarity to let his fans know he supported Rico. Why is it that Black female artists have been the target of these toxic fan bases in recent years? More importantly, why does it seem that Gunna is the only one stepping up to defend his opening act? No matter who is on the bill at a show or on a tour, fans should respect all artists involved.
