Last month R&B songstress Sevyn Streeter was prohibited from singing the national anthem just before she was set to perform on live TV.
Overcome with emotion, Streeter informed social media that it was due to her desire to sport a ‘We Matter’ jersey; a move frowned on by the Philly 76ers.
The switch saw the team came under an extensive amount of backlash from the general public and the mainstream media.
They’ve has since apologized to the ‘Prolly’ singer, and now they look to further make amends by inviting Ms. Streeter back to sing the ‘Star Spangled Banner.’

The starlet shared additional details of her partnership with the organization which includes community outreach programs and initiatives with the Philadelphia Boys and Girls Clubs.

She’s going to get booed for causing all that unnecessary drama the first time around. That’s what happens when you bring politics to work with no support or backing. Guh dont nobody know you! Should have thrown on some comfortable, showed up, killed the anthem, left and deposited that check. Bye Sevyn!
Did you go to school Lea? Do you think the rights you have today were attained by folks kicking back over the years, staying in their place and never standing up for what they believed in? Sometimes ‘DRAMA’ as you call it – shines a light on issues that warrant attention – and change. Stay in school.
Lea go get enough education
Get your blessing girl!
Good for her
