Singer Brian McKnight has faced backlash from fans and a hit to his income as reports suggest he has distanced himself from his first family and moved on to a new one. This alleged disowning of his first family has caused controversy, leading to the cancellation of one of McKnight’s concerts. In an Instagram post on April 13, McKnight alluded to cutting out negativity from his life, even if it means letting go of toxic relationships.
Amidst the controversy, fellow singer Tyrese has stepped up to defend Brian McKnight. As the R&B former heartthrob navigates public scrutiny and criticism, Tyrese has shown support for his colleague during this challenging time. Despite the backlash and concert cancellation, it seems McKnight has found an ally in Tyrese as he deals with the fallout from his personal decisions.
However, McKnight’s son was not happy about the singer’s input. “Tyrese used to sleep under our pool table when I was a kid,” Niko wrote on his Instagram Stories. “I know the 90s RnB brotherhood blood is thicker than anything you should sit this one out champ. The allegiance to those things is what keeps you guys from seeing that the only thing that matters in the end is family. Real men can see past the bulls–t,” Niko added.
