Taking to Tik Tok on Tuesday (November 7), Jackson lifted the ‘Water’ cover as the latest contribution to his weekly #TMixTuesdays series.

Despite winning rave reviews for his takes on smashes like Chris Brown‘s ‘Under the Influence,’ Doechii‘s ‘What It Is (Block Boy),‘ and other tunes in the past, fans weren’t exactly as receptive of his spin of Tyla’s tune (which recently broke into the Hot 100’s top 40 for the first time).

A wash in more ways than one, the actor-singer was criticized about everything from his vocal embellishments and unique facial expressions to his racy reversal of the Sammy Soso-produced bop’s subject matter.

Look below for some of the disapproving reactions.
