The Nigerian singer takes full accountability in an open letter, thanking the Afrobeats star for recording a verse while expressing regret over the scrapped project.
Nigerian singer Victor Adere, popularly known as Victor AD, has publicly apologised to senior colleague Tiwa Savage.
The singer addressed the long-standing issue surrounding an unreleased remix of his breakout hit single, Wetin We Gain.
In an open letter posted on his social media page, Victor AD expressed deep regret over how the collaboration ended.
He disclosed that Tiwa Savage recorded a feature verse for the remix, but the track ultimately went unreleased.
Victor AD admitted that he should have taken full accountability for the project’s failure much earlier in his career.
“I should have done this a long time ago, but it is never too late to take accountability,” he wrote.
The artist acknowledged that no explanation could justify withholding the song after the effort Tiwa Savage invested.
He praised her dedication, noting that her genuine love and creative contribution made the recorded verse truly special.
Beyond the apology, Victor AD celebrated Tiwa Savage’s immense contributions to Afrobeats and Nigerian music culture globally.
He emphasized that her pioneering impact remains undeniable and stated he would never take her support for granted.
Responding publicly in the comment section, Tiwa Savage gracefully accepted the apology and indicated zero hard feelings.
“I appreciate this. God knows the reason for everything. All love,” the award-winning songstress warmly replied.
Wetin We Gain, released in 2018, remains one of the most iconic street-hop anthems in contemporary Nigerian music.
Victor AD previously revealed that he also declined other proposed remixes back then to preserve the original song’s identity.
Instead of releasing a remix, he later collaborated with other top industry heavyweights on separate hit records.
Fans and music industry commentators praised Victor AD for displaying maturity, humility, and respect toward his senior colleague.
The public reconciliation highlights growing mutual respect and professionalism among top players within the thriving Afrobeats industry.
Tiwa Savage continues to inspire younger generations of African music creators through her continuous support and mentorship.
Meanwhile, Victor AD remains active in the music scene, consistently releasing new music for his global fanbase.
The warm exchange between both artists has reassured fans of their enduring friendship and mutual artistic appreciation.
