TikToker Peller has apologised after referring to Afrobeats star Runtown as an “up-and-coming artist” during a livestream.
His comment sparked backlash, with many accusing him of disrespecting Runtown’s career. In a follow-up livestream with Elizabeth Amoudu, Peller admitted he was too young to fully appreciate Runtown’s music at its peak.
“Peller never come town when Runtown dey Runtown. Please, forgive the poor boy. Let him breathe. God won’t shame us. I’m sorry, my brothers and sisters,” he said.
