Jermaine said, “Boycotts and marches don’t seem like they work to me, I’m sorry. I think they should send a message while they’re onstage, take advantage of your platform.”
He believes that Rihanna and other artists could do a better job with getting the message out. Rickey Smiley mentioned that if Rihanna decided to perform she could’ve just took a knee at the Super Bowl.
