"Bruno Mars, he made a video for Valentine's Day. I was like, that's crazy," Keyshia said of "Love" on Instagram Live. She added, "He sung the whole song, but he sung it the way I wrote it, and I'm just used to that. So, I felt like it was a real surprise when I heard [O.T. Genasis] do it in a different way. That's where my confusion came in at...But, I think it's funny as hell."
There must have been enough people who didn't see the humor in it because on Tuesday, Genasis took to his Instagram to share some sad news. "They took 'Never Knew' down from YouTube...Somebody hated on my sh*t smh!" He captioned the text image with, "Damn cuzz ..Somebody don’t like me lol."
