Mr Real Apologises to D’banj Over Viral Cream Platform Remark: “I’ve Withdrawn My Comments, Please Forgive Me”
Nigerian singer Mr Real has publicly apologised to music icon D’banj following backlash over a controversial remark he made about the Cream Platform, a statement that quickly went viral and sparked heated reactions online.
The comment, which circulated widely on social media, drew criticism from fans and industry observers who felt it was disrespectful to D’banj’s contributions to the Nigerian music industry and his involvement with the digital content platform.
In response to the growing outrage, Mr Real issued an apology, clarifying that he has withdrawn his earlier comments and expressing regret over the situation.
“I’ve withdrawn my comments, please forgive me,” the singer stated, acknowledging that his words were misunderstood or poorly expressed.
The apology appears to have calmed tensions, with many fans applauding Mr Real for taking responsibility and addressing the issue directly rather than allowing it to linger. Others, however, have called for greater caution among artistes when speaking on sensitive industry matters, especially on public platforms.
D’banj, popularly known as the Koko Master, remains one of Nigeria’s most influential music figures, both as a performer and entrepreneur. Over the years, he has played a key role in shaping Afrobeats’ global presence and supporting emerging talents through various initiatives.
While D’banj has not yet publicly responded to the apology, the incident has reignited conversations about respect, accountability, and professionalism within the entertainment industry.
As the situation continues to unfold, many fans hope the matter will be resolved amicably, allowing both artistes to move forward without further controversy.
