Fans on Social Media Question School's Decision to Have Sexyy Red Appear

Sexyy Red's video has been viewed over 5 million times on Twitter. But the clip has also sparked outrage from fans who felt that Red's music is inappropriate for a high school setting. Many people thought Red was performing at the school, but that wasn't the case.

"Not sexyy red having an appearance at a high school. I just wanna know what principle approved that lol," wrote one fan.

Another commenter tweeted, "[I] like some of sexyy red songs but she shouldn’t be performing at any high school with those songs sorry [woman shoulder shrug emoji]."

A third person typed: "None of sexyy red's lyrics are high or middle school appropriate.
Imagine singing my coochie pink, my bootyhole brown in front of 13-17 year olds [three loudly crying emojis]."

Another user believed the backlash Sexyy Red received for being at a high school is much to do about nothing.

"Male rappers legit go to high schools all the time with their woman hating ass songs and y’all complaining about an old video of Sexyy Red going to a high school to give out prom money. What a dumb ass bunch," he wrote.
