Pop superstar Benson Boone does not mind facing criticism, but he just wants people to be a little more specific about what exactly they dislike about him or his music.
In a post on TikTok this week, after performing at both weekends of the Coachella Music festival in Indio, California, Boone shared a message where he simply asked his haters to at least “have a good reason” for their hate.
“If you hate me or my music at least have a good reason for it,” Boone wrote in white text over
a front-facing video of his face
with an unreleased song playing in the background. “I just read a comment that said ‘idek why I hate Benson Boone but it feels right.’ Like WHAT!!? how am I supposed to improve after reading that?”
Boone has become notorious for his acrobatic flips during his performances on stage, and he even addressed that in his video.
“At least say something valid like ‘he low key just flips everywhere can he [do] anything else?'” Boone wrote.
Boone even offered one suggestion for criticism that he would deem “super valid.”
“I just don’t like his songs even though I’m basing my opinion off the only one I’ve heard over and over,” Boone wrote, seemingly referencing his massive hit “Beautiful Things” which has received a lot of play on the radio.
Regardless of the criticism that he has received from some people, he has clearly been successful, earning a Grammy nomination this year and playing in front of a massive crowd at Coachella this month.
