The Grammy Awards' tribute to Prince Sunday night left fans with mixed feelings.

Almost four years after Prince's death from an accidental overdose in April 2016, the Recording Academy honored his legacy on music's biggest night with Usher belting out a medley of the artist's biggest songs.

While Usher sang along to Prince's greatest hits, including "Kiss" and "When Doves Cry," veteran musician Sheila E. accompanied him on drums and Grammy-nominated singer FKA twigs performed on a pole and danced onstage.

After the performance, fans were split. While some praised Usher's vocals and FKA twigs' dance moves, others criticized the performance, upset that Usher was chosen to perform and complaining that FKA twigs was reduced to a side act.

"Usher has slayed the Janet MTV ICON honor, that MJ special, and now this Prince tribute. He gets nothing but my respect," @trapcry tweeted.

"Seeing Usher give tribute to Prince, just reminded me that there will never be another Prince," @BenBoogie22 tweeted.

FKA twigs responded in a tweet Sunday night after her performance: "of course i wanted to sing at the grammys. i wasn’t asked this time but hopefully in the future. none the less what an honour. congratulations to all winners x."

"She didn’t want to sing," Sheila E. told USA TODAY backstage. "First she wanted to, but then she didn’t want to when we ran through it because she didn’t have a (microphone) pack and (in-ear monitors), so she couldn’t hear. And she would rather have danced – which is what we asked her as well. She chose not to; she said ‘No, I’m OK.’ "

Grammys 2020:Brutally honest reviews of all the performances

Earlier in the day, FKA twigs' "Cellophane" lost out when the 2020 Grammy for best music video went to Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus' "Old Town Road."

"imagine making the decision to not let FKA Twigs sing anything at all," @robsheff tweeted.

"FKA Twigs has never been less utilized effectively," @speriod tweeted.

"So you're telling me FKA Twigs is here to be a backup dancer for USHER??" @JudiceSay tweeted.

"when FKA twigs did that stunning pole dance but didn’t sing a word during that tribute," @moonlightwonbp tweeted with a meme that read "Let them speak."

"Not a fan of FKA Twigs being reduced to a pole dancer while Usher sings, even if it is a Prince tribute," New York Times fashion director and critic Vanessa Friedman tweeted.
