Chris Brown has tried his absolute best to distance himself from the 2009 domestic abuse case with Rihanna that has haunted him since, but it doesn't seem he will escape the reputation anytime soon. Irish band Original Rude Boys declined to open for Brown in Dublin, citing that playing alongside Chris Brown would send the wrong message to their fans.

One member of the band Sean Walsh explained their decision in an interview. "Even though it's a huge opportunity to play in the 02 with a major hip-hop star and a substantial fee was offered, we are completely against Chris Brown's assault on Rihanna," explained Walsh. "In addition, with our latest single 'Blue Eyes' being about domestic violence it goes against everything we are about as a band and supporting Chris Brown would send out the wrong message to our fans.
