Nigerian rapper, Ice Prince Zamani, has said he is still hurting from the death of South African colleague, AKA, because there was a misunderstanding to settle before he passed away.
He explained that AKA’s Twitter rants about Nigerians during the 2019 xenophobic violence in South Africa, made him call the Cape Town rapper out on social media in a way that seemed like they were beefing.
Speaking in a recent episode of the G2G Podcast, Ice Prince disclosed that he has asked God for forgiveness for not amending his friendship with AKA before he died.
He revealed that he still sees the South African when praying.
“I wish we got to speak about it [our misunderstanding] because we never. And it hurt me so bad because that’s my friend. AKA wasn’t just an artist that I collaborated with.
“He has been to my house in Lagos a couple of times. That’s my friend. It did hurt me that we never got to settle that misunderstanding.
“But I have prayed about it so many times. I still see him in my prayers. Sometimes, when I’m praying I see him there. So, I know we are at peace. I know he looks out for me as one of my homeboys in heaven,” he expressed.
Reports holds that AKA was shot dead by a gunman outside a restaurant in Durban on 10 February, 2023.
The trial into his murder is still ongoing.
