As you know, Jones — alongside Rep. Jasmine Crockett and producer RoccStar — took the stage during Breezy and Usher‘s recent tour stop in Arlington to give the duo a Congressional Record recognition.
The way Jones tells it … the venue asked him to attend, and the politicians were called in to encourage people to get out and vote ahead of the upcoming midterm elections.
Jones and Crockett both have been getting backlash for honoring the scandalized singer’s artistry, considering Breezy’s extensive history of domestic violence.
Now, Jones is doing damage control.
