Sukihana has chosen to forgive YK Osiris following his attempts to forcibly kiss her last weekend. The rapper released a statement early Friday (June 16) thanking supporters and explaining why she’s ready to move forward from the incident.
She started by saying the “thoughtfulness” of everyone who reached out “has not gone unnoticed.” Then, she revealed she and YK have spoken privately about the incident.

“First, I want to acknowledge that YK Osiris has apologized to me both privately and publicly and I gave chosen to accept his apology. God always forgives me and I can always forgive others. My accepting his apology is not my excusing or lessening the severity of his actions. This is Destiny choosing to give grace to Osiris. He is young. It is my prayer that his experience will cause him and others to be more mindful and respect the personal boundaries of others.”
On Saturday (June 10), Sukihana and Osiris were both at an Atlanta event for The Crew League, an indoor basketball league. The initial viral clip shows Suki sitting at a table alongside Lil Duval and Funny Marco and YK standing behind her. YK was rubbing Suki’s shoulders before grabbing her by the chin and kissing her on the lips.
Despite Sukihana’s body language–squirming away, ducking, and shocked facial expressions–YK attempted to repeat the action. While smiling and laughing, YK walked away soon after.
The video made its social media rounds–prompting backlash related to sexual assault from fans and celebrities like Amber Rose and Masika Kalysha.
By June 14, The Shade Room obtained an exclusive video showing Sukihana and YK’s conversation moments before the kiss attempts. The clip shows what appears to be flirty comments from Suki and Osiris. She tells him, “I’m gon’ turn yo a*s out.” He tells her to “holla at” him, planting a kiss on her cheek–that she seemed shocked by.
Sukihana Declares Her Right To Boundaries, Says She’s Ready To Move On
Suki also addressed a stand-out argument amid the viral conversations about the kiss attempts. Critics largely pointed to Sukihana’s sex-positive persona, raunchy lyrics, and flirty conversation with YK as justifications for his forwardness. But, like her supporters, Sukihana rejected that notion.
“I am human, a woman, a mother and daughter before I am an entertainer. No matter what my lyrics express, I still have boundaries and a right to have them. Again, I have accepted his apology and am working towards getting back to my life. I am giving YK the grace and forgiveness that I wanted to be given to me as I was discovering and defining myself on this very public and sometimes unforgiving entertainment platform.”
The rapper shared the statement on her Instagram account. In the caption, she added:
“I am a pro-Black woman, and I am not into tearing Black men down. This is something I am choosing to forgive him for. I love him and accept his apology. I would like to move forward from this.”
As Suki mentioned, YK Osiris apologized to her publicly in a statement on Thursday (June 15). He acknowledged the importance of consent, took “full responsibility” for his actions, and revealed his “utmost admiration” for Sukihana.
