Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
While watching Taeyeon perform at yesterday’s MAMA 2016, everybody assumed that her stage would segue right into her collab with Wiz Khalifa, mostly because the collab was announced beforehand and because they even rehearsed it.
Well, it didn’t happen, and I thought we just got conned. I was quite salty that it didn’t happen cause it would’ve worked out great.

Understandably, everybody just figured MAMA fucked it up cause MAMA fucks EVERYTHING up. However, according to Wiz Khalifa’s recent tweets, it was Taeyeon that backed out of the collab.
Never apologize for being yourself and never let anyone else's self projection determine your worth.

The fact that Teyeon backed out of our performance caught me off guard too but never accept rejection as failure.

Apparently they even recorded stuff.

Nobody knows exactly what happened yet, but Wiz and his DJ seem pressed about how things went down, and they’re directing a bunch of that towards Taeyeon.
Maybe Taeyeon said Wiz was “handsome for a black person” or something?
😮
AMIRITE OR AMIRITE
Regardless of what happened, I know this: MAMA never fails to deliver the drama. Even when it’s not during the show, it still comes through.

Update 1
The DJ is saying that they’re not mad, but reiterates that Taeyeon is the one who backed out.
There's no BEEF… it just sucked that we never got to do it… We were looking forward to it…

We rehearsed it with her. We don't know why she backed out. You can ask her. We aren't mad. It would have been for the fans. #mama2016

For the record. No one at WIZ camp is mad. We were just disappointed because we rehearsed it and we did not get to perform it for the fans.

Then he did a bit of damage control, probably after quickly finding out how insane K-pop fans are.
I put the SNIPPET OUT FOR THE FANS because she sounded great.
— DJ BONICS (@DJBonics) December 2, 2016
I posted the clip so her fans could hear how great it is!

Regardless of the new tweets, it seems reasonable to expect an explanation for this from … well, somebody. Otherwise, it just comes off as horribly unprofessional on the part of Taeyeon.
