"The GOOD Party says NO to abuse! Chris Brown’s concert sends the wrong message. We can't normalise abusers. No stage for abusers. Stand up for women’s safety!"

The statement from GOOD reads:

“We are concerned about the message Chris Brown’s concert is sending to the men and women of our country. We all need to walk our talk. Given the South African GBVF pandemic, we cannot separate the art from the artist”.

They mentioned his alleged violent past with more lovers other than Rihanna. They said she was a "serial offender" who pleaded guilty to the charge.

"We call on the concert organizers and those who plan to attend his concert to think about the implications of placing a man like him on a pedestal."
