Jhene Aiko Explains Absence From Def Jam’s 30th Anniversary Show

jheneIf you missed Jhehe Aiko at Def Jam’s 30-year anniversary celebration on Thursday, it was for a good reason.

In a star-studded performance that brought back the likes of DMX and Foxy Brown, Jhene was notably missed. In an IG response that was eventually removed, Jheno told a fan what went down.

On a #tbt photo Jhene posted with her daughter, user @ladiidestiny wrote, “@jheneaiko I love you n your music but explain y you weren’t at Barclays tonight?! your fans wanna know! (We still love you tho lol)”

Jhene responded: “@ladiidestiny unfortunately me and my camp were told to “get the f*** out” by “workers” while I was waiting to go on stage, ….after this “worker” (male) physically assaulted a member of my management (female) ….we had to leave due to the disrespect and hostile environment. If there’s one thing I can’t rock with, it’s disrespect…. if me and my band members were any of the rappers that were performing there, we would have never been talked to or treated in such a way. I’m sorry that I was unable to perform for you tonight…. hope to see you soon!”
