Before releasing her new song “sick,” AleXa held a TikTok Live. She revealed that it had been two years since she promoted, but she didn’t know why.

Netizens feared that it was AleXa’s “paycheck.” Some suggested it could have been to make his presence known after the previous controversial TikTok Live in which she exposed the company’s lack of promotion of her.
