On Monday night, Bryant took to social media calling the lyrics, “extremely insensitive and disrespectful,” in an Instagram story.
“I am not familiar with any of your music, but I believe you can do better than this,” she wrote. “If you are a fan, fine, there’s a better way to show your admiration for my husband. This lacks respect and tact.
