The local management of the artiste have revealed that HONE7 who has already recorded songs with two local artiste, Roqar Vibes and Samuel G, visited Ghana not to support LGBTQ+ rights as has been reported by a section of the media but to promote her musical works.
The management said the artiste only condemned physical attacks on the LGBTQ+ community when he wrote, “I condemn physical attacks on the LGBTQ+ community,” attacks she described as inhumane in one of her radio interviews.
“HONE7 has never made any public statements that seek to promote same-sex marriage,” the local management team told Beatwaves in an interview on Friday.
