Controversial comments: Taye Currency publicly tenders apology to Pasuma

Popular Fuji musician Taye Currency has publicly apologized to his senior colleague, Alhaji Pasuma, following backlash over comments he made during a recent performance.

While on stage, Taye Currency voiced his disapproval of fans referring to Pasuma as his “father” in the music industry, stating that he views Pasuma more as an elder brother. This remark sparked significant controversy across social media platforms.

In response to the negative reactions, Taye Currency released an apology in a viral video, addressing both Pasuma and anyone who may have been offended by his earlier statements.

 “Good day, everyone. My name is Alhaji Taye Currency. Following the recent rumours on social media, I want to greet our people and those who love us, especially Pasuma’s supporters and the lovers of Fuji music in general.

People who misunderstood my comments should not be angry. I sincerely apologise for what happened because people interpret words differently, and that’s what I have come to understand.

“Some individuals have misinterpreted my words as an insult to Pasuma, but I don’t see how anyone can point to anything I said as abusive. He is my boss. Arabanbi, Apesin, Oganla Fuji. We are one, so please don’t separate us.

“Alhaji Alabi Pasuma is my boss. He knows I’m loyal to him. For it not to seem disrespectful, I apologise to Pasuma. You are an elder. To Pasuma’s fans club, I’m sorry; Taye Currency fans, one love. Alhaji Alao, please don’t be angry”, he said in Yoruba.

Taye Currency began his music career as a teenager and credits his success to the steadfast support and invaluable mentorship he received from Pasuma throughout his journey in the music industry.
