A viral video of LilWin in a mobile studio setup, recording a song from his hospital bed with rapper Kwaku Flick, has sparked intense reactions online.
The song appears to address the backlash following his accident, which tragically resulted in the death of a three-year-old boy and his hospitalization.
Announcing the new track on Instagram, LilWin revealed collaborations with King Paluta and Kwaku Flick, stating:
“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. On May 25, 2024, I was in a terrible accident with my manager @ray_moni, resulting in the loss of a young life. Rest in perfect peace, Nana Yaw.
“I pray that the good Lord grants your parents another child to fulfill your destiny. To all my fans, thank you for your prayers. Special thanks to @kwekuflick @kingpalutamusic & @apyagh for this project.”
However, the announcement triggered fury among some netizens who criticized LilWin for what they perceived as a lack of sensitivity toward the family of the deceased child.
Netizens are still insisting that the comedian’s appearance at his movie premiere shortly after the accident was an attempt to gain sympathy rather than acknowledge the pain and suffering caused.
Meanwhile, LilWin is currently facing legal proceedings following the accident, with his case currently before the Attorney General’s office.
This was after bail was granted following his initial detention at Okomfo Anokye Teaching Hospital and subsequent transfer to a police station.
Calls have intensified for the court to impose severe penalties in light of the young boy’s tragic death.
