It was the opposite of what I preach - Oyemykke says as he apologises to DJ Cuppy for saying she cannot sing (video)

Legit.ng recently reported the news of how Oyemykke, an Instagram comedian, slammed female musician DJ Cuppy. In a scathing way, he told off the songs of the beautiful lady and clearly instructed her to stick to being a disc jockey or producer. Even more, the social media celebrity said her music was noise to the ears.

This shrill, unkind correction doled out by Oyemykke was met with a lot of frowns from people who appreciated the singer. They did not like that he had lambasted her in such a careless manner.

For some months, Oyemykke did not say anything about the video nor did he show any form of remorse. But now, the Instagram comedian has come out to tender a public apology to DJ Cuppy.

According to Oyemykke, after watching the video again, it finally dawned on him that he had addressed DJ Cuppy in an offensive way. This mistake of his had been haunting his mind for quite a while.

Just so he could back up his claim of being sorry, the comedian wrote a caption that showed his repentance and full fledged support of the singer. See his post below:

suited_gq: "so the moral of the story is, you can only give constructive creative criticism to male musician not female musician, cause u have a daughter. I’m confused ‍♂️ cus to me you never did anything wrong u just simple stated the fact. I bet you, if her dad wasn’t a billionaire this wouldn’t even be a conversation. Then again money talks."

lovelyntalented2: "Very good.I was seriously mad at you for that video too and left a foul comment on your post.So as a @cuppymusic fan,me sef forgive you."

truthonehundred: "@dorcasdaduchess You are correct. Truth is i learn more from observing the actions of others and reflecting on that which have been said and done. What i already know does not interest me. You have thought me something new today."

pompeyg: "I think this guy is going places ... he’s very strategic and unpredictable at the same time but Cuppy can’t sing though "
