Jaywon Apologizes to Ayra Starr Over Grammy Snub Post, Calls Her Best in Africa
Nigerian singer Jaywon recently extended an apology to his fellow artist Ayra Starr after accusations surfaced that he mocked her for not securing a Grammy nomination.
The Grammy nominees for the 67th awards show were recently announced, and despite Ayra Starr’s success and popularity this year, her name was absent from the list, disappointing many fans and supporters who had hoped to see her recognized.
Shortly after the announcement, Jaywon posted a photo of himself holding two Grammy awards, which some interpreted as a subtle jab at Ayra Starr’s lack of a nomination.
This was particularly notable given the tension between the two artists, as they’ve been involved in an ongoing online disagreement.
The post quickly sparked backlash, with fans accusing Jaywon of being insensitive to Ayra Starr’s disappointment.
In response to the criticism, Jaywon issued a public apology, clarifying that his intentions had been misunderstood.
Expressing admiration for Ayra Starr, he described her as one of the best female vocalists in Africa and shared that he’s a genuine fan of her music.
He emphasized that he doesn’t believe in tearing others down but instead believes in uplifting and supporting fellow artists to create a lasting impact in the music industry.
In his apology, Jaywon said, 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.
Adding to his supportive message, he continued, On this side, we don’t pull people down. We elevate, not just for today, but for the future. Ola Inu Kan.
Popular rapper Nicki Minaj spoke up and shared that she used to attend church but stopped going, revealing why she made that decision.
She revealed that her reason was linked to the pressure and demands of her music career.
“Once my career started taking off, I stopped going to church. I was working on Friday nights and Saturday nights, so the last thing I could do was wake up on Sunday mornings to go to church,” she said.
The rapper then claimed that despite all this, she still has a relationship with God.
Nigerian content creator Shank sparked debate online as he spoke on relationships and infidelity.
The creator stated that men can cheat and still love their partners.
“I feel like men can multitask. They can love you and still cheat on you. I think they love you enough not to… I don’t think the cheating is trying to hurt you; you get me? But you get hurt in the process.”
He then added that it is hard to explain but stated that it is the truth. Many people reacted, and this sparked debate over his views.
Social media activist VeryDarkMan spoke out on the pupil abduction and called on Governor Seyi Makinde to take action, stating that nothing has been done since the announcement of the abduction.
VDM said that delaying the situation does not make things better for anyone.
“Mr Gov, if you’re waiting for the perfect time to go rescue those children, they’ll keep them there for long and even marry them off to other kidnappers.”
He then added what he has noticed from the behaviour of bandits. “I’ve studied these bandits for so long, I’ve come to realize that if they push and you don’t push back, they’ll see it as weakness and start asking for levies from Oyo State farmers,” he added.
