It appears that Chingy, in fact, won’t be “Right Thurr” at the Republican LGBT “Red, White & Rock” event in Nashville on Sunday, September 29.
The St. Louis rapper was one of the performers slated to take the stage at the event with Donald Trump Jr.
However, once the flyer announcing his performance dropped, Chingy received an influx of backlash and criticism.

Initially, Chingy defended his decision to perform at the event writing:
I’m a say this one time. MY JOB IS TO PERFORM AND I GET PAID TO PERFORM, NOT CAURR ABOUT POLITICS. NOW YALL FIND SUMIN ELSE TO DO WITH YURR TIME.
Well, it didn’t take long for Chingy to change his tune because he slid into the comment section of Baller Alert’s Instagram page to share he has backed out of the performance…under duress.
YOU KNO WHAT JUS CAUSE I DONT WANT TO BE IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS MESS. I HAVE DECLINED PERFORMING AND NO IM NOT A TRUMP SUPPORTER NOR SUPPORTER OF ANYONE ELSE BUT CHINGY. THURR YOU HAVE IT.

Sadly, Chingy’s entire career has been negatively impacted by his choices.

I’m sure someone should or could have advised him that this wasn’t going to benefit him outside of the few coins he would have collected for his one-off performance.
