After a disagreement at a festival in the UK, South African singer Makhadzi unexpectedly apologised to Zimbabwean musician Winky D on social media.
Following Makhadzi’s previous assertion that Winky D wrecked her performance at the Africa Music Festival, which caused a whirlwind of criticism and controversy, the apology was issued.
In a since-deleted Facebook post, Makhadzi wrote a formal apology to Winky D. She penned,
My brother, Winky D, you are a better artist than I am. I regret what occurred in the UK previously. I’m looking up to seeing you today since I have a lot to learn from you, and I hope we can work together on anything.
Last month, in an explosive Facebook Live, Makhadzi accused Winky D of deliberately trying to overshadow her performance.
Makhadzi claimed that the organizers had conspired to sabotage her and fellow artist Jah Prayzah to promote Winky D. She alleged that Winky D extended his performance beyond his allocated time, resulting in her own set being cut short. She stated,
“Winky D, I love you my brother, but it’s like the whole thing was planned for your performance to destroy us… I don’t know if you know that, but that’s what the situation was.”
Makhadzi’s allegations sent shockwaves through the music community, particularly in Zimbabwe, where Winky D enjoys a dedicated fanbase.
Makhadzi faced massive criticism from Winky D’s legion of fans as they fiercely defended him against the blame.
