Singer Lydia Jazmine has addressed concerns that controversial tribalism remarks reportedly made by concert promoter Abtex about Ray G’s Kololo concert could affect the turnout at her upcoming concert.

Lydia Jazmine is set to headline The One and Only Concert on September 4, 2026, at Lugogo Cricket Oval, with Abtex Promotions listed among the promoters.

Speaking about the controversy, Lydia Jazmine distanced herself from the remarks, making it clear that she does not involve herself in politics or tribalism as a brand.

The singer said she focuses on her music and believes attempts to associate her with statements made by someone who has invested in her concert could be intended to sabotage an event she has worked hard to build.

She explained that she no longer feels the need to constantly defend herself because her fans already know the kind of person she is.

“We are two different people and the fans that love me will come through and support me,” she said.

Lydia Jazmine further emphasized that she has never been seen politicizing her music or making tribalistic statements, insisting that her personal brand should be judged by her own actions rather than those of people she works with.

The singer’s comments come as she prepares for another major concert following her successful First Born concert at Hotel Africana in 2024. Her upcoming show is expected to give fans another opportunity to experience her music live.
