Despite the musician's response, the X user made another post saying, "Fun fact herpes doesn’t have a cure. You can only manage it. However not a deadly disease but it has breakout like cold sores. In that light , before any sexual activity with a man or lady know their sexual history. Don’t sleep with everything . Use condom . Protect your sanity."
