Renowned socialite Yhemolee has issued an apology to skit maker Nasboi for belittling his talent and career as a musician in a written note.
This comes in the wake of criticism sparked by a podcast session where the ‘king of nightlife’ scrutinized Nasboi’s career and his newly released music single, ‘Umbrella.’
In response to Nasboi’s clarification on how the socialite undermined his career, Yhemolee extended an apology through the X platform.
Yhemolee admitted to being unaware that Nasboi had previously pursued a career as a singer before venturing into comedy.
In a detailed note expressing his apology, he clarified that the podcast’s intention was to engage in banter with the host, Isbaeu.
He wrote: “Hi brother, First off I’m sure from the first time we met up till today, we have never crossed each other, and we have mutual respect. I have supported your craft and featured in some of your content. I totally respect your Talent and I can never water it down.”
“Oh well if you felt some sort of way about a reference made in the content with baeU, you could have reached out to me like I’m doing right now and you probably would have had a clearer understanding or baeU himself would have made you understand the direction of the content with him.
“As against the tweet you just made, in which I take no offence even though I was never expecting such from you. But this is me saying I’m sorry about it and I hope it eases your mind and it will never repeat itself again. The content direction was more of sarcasm, banter and humour.
“I threw serious bants to Isbaeu as well just as he did to me as well. Nothing was said from a place of resentment or disrespect or whatever and again I am sorry. I love your music, as a matter of fact, I did help to share it on my socials as well. I enjoy it at my workplace and I mentioned in the same video with Isbaeu how much of a beautiful song it is.
“The banter was about comic acts tilting towards music, I never knew you to be a prolific musician or had a history with music until after this song dropped. Forgive my ignorance. Thank you.”
