However, Basketmouth did not confirm or deny allegations made against him by others in the industry, stating that “God knows the truth” regarding those accusations. He acknowledged that some might perceive his video as a publicity stunt for his upcoming show but emphasized that his apology stemmed from genuine intentions to reconcile with his colleagues.
The feud between AY and Basketmouth originally began over unpaid fees for a gig where AY stood in for Basketmouth. AY had also accused Basketmouth of various instances of mistreatment, which Basketmouth had previously denied, stating that they were never close friends.
Additionally, comedian Destalker had revealed a falling out with Basketmouth due to a miscommunication about appearing on Basketmouth’s show. Destalker claimed that Basketmouth had ignored his attempts to reconcile, leading to strained relations in the industry.
