Nigerian singer, Jaywon, has apologised to his colleague, Ayra Starr, after he was accused of mocking her over being snubbed by the Grammys.
DAILY POST reports that the nominees for the 67th Grammys were recently announced and Ayra Starr failed to get a nod despite her remarkable run this year.
Shortly after the announcement, Jaywon who has been involved in an online beef with Ayra Starr, shared a photo of himself posing with two Grammy awards, which many believed was a shade at Starr.
Following the backlash, Jaywon has now apologised for his action.
He said he believes that Ayra Starr is one of the best female African vocalists.
He explained that he doesn’t pull people down but elevates them for future purposes.
“If you see Ayra Starr, tell her I’m sorry she wasn’t nominated for this year’s Grammys. I’m a huge fan of her music, and I believe she’s one of the best female vocalists Africa has.
“On this side, we don’t pull people down. We elevate, not just for today, but for the future. Ola Inu Kan,” the singer wrote.
Jaywon is a voting member of the Recording Academy, the organisers of the Grammys.
