Swae Lee has been under heavy fire from South Africans after he credited the origin of Amapiano to Nigeria.
The American hiphop star had earlier credited Nigerians for the origin of the ravaging genre in a tweet he sent earlier this week. He stated, “Wait till y’all hear Swae Lee on Amapiano 🇳🇬.”
After receiving backlashes from South Africans, the rapper sent out another tweet apologizing for not acknowledging the contributions of SA to the genre.
“I never discredited nobody sorry y’all read it that way I never said anything about it’s origins in that tweet I was just letting my fans know I’m tapped in and been cooking some amapiano style songs salute to the history of amapiano and the first creators of it I’m not taking that away from anybody much love and stay tuned,” he said.
South Africans aren’t hearing any of Swae Lee’s plea as they felt Nigerians are taking credit for the sound that originated from these streets. Is Swae Lee free now? Hell no, he is still being roasted!
