In a video captioned, “Just wanted to say HEY,” fans flooded Donald’s comment section with warm messages of encouragement and check-ins, countering the relentless bullying he had faced. The singer responded with an assuring comment in the comment section:
“Guys, don’t worry about me. I’ve been trolled on social media from the beginning of my career. I’m a blessed man who has always made people feel uncomfortable, and I’ve made peace with that,” he wrote.
The artist has faced relentless body shaming in the comment sections under a variety of his posts, claiming that his slim stature is a sign that he is ill, much like a viral comment under one of his videos where a commenter said, “Speed recovery.”

More about Donald’s song
Donald has been promoting and teasing a new song titled Hey, said to be dropping soon. The song is about an infatuated man singing to his love interest, stating that he doesn’t want to bother her plans but simply wanted to check in on her and say “hey.” As it stands, the viral comment is an inside joke between him and his fans, after he posted his performance of the song with Sfiso, the podcaster.
He shared a snippet of the performance from a day ago with a witty caption, “Vicky, what have you done?”
