Musician Wanlov the Kubolor has disclosed that he knew from the onset the relationship between Medikal and his sister Deborah Vanessa (Sister Derby) had a wobbly wheel but endorsed it because he did not want to come across as an ‘enemy of progress’.
The FOKN Bois member speaking on 3FM’s ShowBuzz noted that he could tell from a distance that “Medikal was a guy who likes women” but refused to caution his sister, hoping that she would realize the danger ahead and jump accordingly.
“From his lyrics… He was talking about all different kinds of women and he was not saying those things for shows. Somehow, as a musician, if you’re really real to your craft, most of the things you say are things that you’ve done or want to do. So if she was looking at those signs, she would not be as hurt or surprised as she was,” said Wanlov who had earlier indicated that he is “not hundred per cent sorry for Deborah because everybody has to learn and grow.”
Astounded by Wanlov’s remarks, MzGee, host of the show asked why “a big brother” would publicly endorse the relationship of his sister having noticed a red flag.
“Yeah, as I’m saying, I was hoping she will [know] on her own,” Wanlov replied. “I haven’t seen him do any kind of move that I never liked before. But from the lyrics of his songs, you have to realize that this person wants a certain kind of lifestyle.
“People who are in love would even lie to themselves that the truth is something else just to convince themselves to keep going. They’d probably start looking at you like ‘oh you don’t like my relationship…’ so you just hope that they realize on their own,” he added.
