Donald Trump inauguration: Chrisette Michele song dropped from new Netflix series

Director Spike Lee has revealed he was considering using a song by Grammy winner Chrisette Michele in an upcoming project but has decided not to following her decision to perform at the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump.

Lee confirmed the news on Instagram stating he wanted to use "Black Girl Magic" in the upcoming She's Gotta Have It series which is based on his 1988 film of the same name.

Michele stepped in as a performer following the news that Andy Grammer had backed out - just one of quite a few.

The singer posted a message to Twitter earlier on this week, saying: "My heart is broken for our country, for the hopes of our children, for the fights of those who came before us," she stated. "I cry at the thought that Black History, American History might be in vain.
