After Six Years 9ice Has Something To Say
*Walks up the stage, takes the microphone, clears throat* Sound man kindly increase the volume Of the microphone.
A few days back Toni Payne wrote a deep heart felt letter, stating she had forgiven 9ice for all Of the pain she had had to go through in the last six years *wipes tears* especially because he didn't deem it feat to come to her defence While the World ripped her apart on some false allegations Of unfaithfulness.
Today for the first time in six Years 9ice has something to say to us.
9ice can you please come up the stage?
" It has come to my attention that yesterday some people were up to some mischief harassing Toni Payne regarding an evil rumor that was spread years ago. I would like to use this opportunity to state categorically that
the song Once Bitten Twice shy was not and can never be about Toni Payne. I have NEVER accused her or told anybody that she cheated on me because she DID NOT. It did not happen and it was never an issue. Let me be
very clear. Toni Payne NEVER cheated on me. Some marriages do not work for different reasons.
Unfortunately I released my album at a very delicate time in our relationship and a song from the album was taken the wrong way and things were blown out of proportion due to my silence.
I have apologized to her in person and she has accepted my apology. I have moved on to a fresh start and she has moved on too. I would appreciate if the general public do the same.
I would appreciate if people refrain from insulting her for something she is not guilty of.
Once again, the song Once Bitten Twice Shy was NEVER about TONI PAYNE. It was just a song. I wish I had come out sooner but I cannot change the past, I can only try and make amends for the future.
It is a new dawn for us all and I hope this closes the topic permanently. If it does not, maybe it is best I release a song clarifying this issue for the 100th time because what started all this was a song and all my effort to clear that air via interviews have been futile. I assure you, I will stop at nothing to make sure this evil rumor is put to sleep once and for all. Again It was never my intention to cause her pain. My apologies to everyone who was affected. God Bless!"

Thank you 9ice and thank you all for time spent and audience granted.
