"So, back to what happened to me and to Tall Racks. So what happened was, I feel like no one knew what they were doing, and I had too much faith in one man," she told host Slikour.
Beyond feeling let down by the label's direction, Rowlene also addressed something that clearly cut much deeper. She was reportedly told that her work ethic was the problem, a claim she pushed back on with visible emotion.
"Being said and told that I was lazy and that I'm not, like, hardworking enough, or I didn't want it enough, is kind of crazy," she said. "Because personally, that's one thing I try to not take personally. But this is too much info. So I'm gonna tell you I did take this personally, and that's all I'm gonna say."
Her words have resonated widely, with fans praising her for finally speaking her truth after years of silence on the matter.
