In the wake of young Nigerian artist Mohbad's untimely death, the entertainment industry has been in turmoil. While many have spoken out about the incident, one artist, James Brown, has been notably silent.

Some have questioned whether Brown's silence is indicative of a lack of respect or care for the late musician.

Brown has recently addressed the matter, explaining that he was simply choosing not to get involved as the situation was not directly related to him.

He said

Hey Durlings It took me time to understand everything about

Mohbad demise. I am familiar with his song but not too close to him personally.

When I heard the news I was on set I did not know how to react, After a proper explanation from my PA& Team I now understand everything, I am so sorry (MY DURLINGS)

I can feel the pain of the youths.
