⁠"Bro forgot his lyrics the tried to blame it on the fan": Internet slams Logic for calling out a fan for texting their partner mid-concert

Rapper Logic recently caused a sensation when he stopped his performance to confront a fan he said was texting his girlfriend while he was performing. According to fan-recorded footage that has now gone viral, the 'Homicide' hitmaker interrupted his performance to confront a member of the audience.

In the middle of the concert, Logic, whose real name is Sir Robert Bryson Hall II, was performing 'Homicide' when he called out a fan and questioned why he was texting rather than paying attention. Reactions from the audience were mixed; some applauded, while others seemed uneasy about the confrontation in public.

A user commented:

"Bro forgot his lyrics the tried to blame it on the fan."

Fans and others on the internet debated whether Logic's reaction of calling out that fan was excessive, as many thought that the fan's actions didn't appear to be disruptive.

People on social media quickly offered their opinions on the incident. As one fan suggested that the rapper may have used the fan as a scapegoat for an onstage error by his comment:

"Bro forgot his lyrics the tried to blame it on the fan."

Others called the incident "petty" and "embarrassing."

More comments by the users are as follows:

Another user felt that the rapper was acting entitled and overstepping by singling out a fan mid-performance:

"Maaan who does Logic think he is?"

While another compared the concert to a lecture, joking that the fan shouldn't have to endure unwelcome criticism:

"I would’ve left. Cause why am I in class?"

A fan argued that the rapper was deflecting from his own mistakes during the performance:

"Lmao this n*gga got distracted and forgot his raps then tried to blame it on the fan. He a f*cking dweeb."

Another fan poked fun at the situation, suggesting a classic humorous comeback which could have lightened the tension:

"Should have replied with, “your mom”. For sake of classic discourse."

While another joked that the rapper must have watched a Matt Rife clip, as a similar incident had occurred at the comedian's show, which he turned into crowdwork:

"You can actually TELL he watched a Matt Rife compilation on TikTok from his Therapy Couch right before show time."

A user argued that publicly shaming his fans could damage his reputation as an artist:

"How to lose your respect as an artist 101. Heckle your own fans."

While another stood up for the fan, stating that fans have the right to enjoy the show without being chastised:

"Bro thinks he’s Michael Jackson, dude paid for his ticket he can text someone if he wants; cry more lil b*tch."

Logic's career beyond music

The rapper, who retired in 2020, after the birth of his son, as he said he wanted to dedicate his entire energy to it and concentrate on his mental health before moving into writing and cinematography. Since then, he has expanded outside music.

The comedic film Paradise Records, which debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival, marked Logic's directorial debut, according to a June 2025 USA Today article. Supported by famous names like J.J. Abrams, Seth MacFarlane, and Kevin Smith, the rapper described the initiative as a “spiritual journey” that helped him to find creativity beyond music. He gave therapy credit for assisting him in establishing limits and keeping his life in balance. He told USA TODAY:

"It's been such an incredible internal and spiritual journey. I've learned things like the power of no, literally just how to say 'no.' I used to not do that because I wanted to people-please."

Logic still tours and releases songs despite doing all this. His return to the stage, however, came with backlash following the incident.
