‘Y’all So Petty!’: Lil Fizz Issues Public Apology to Omarion After Dating His Ex Apryl Jones and Causing Group to Split, Apryl Seemingly ‘Unbothered’

Lil Fizz stunned fans everywhere on Oct. 1 after publicly apologizing to his B2K band mate Omarion Grandberry while appearing on the “Millennium Tour.”

The rapper issued the apology because of his former relationship with Grandberry’s ex and the mother of his two children, Apryl Jones.

Fizz and Jones — who were rumored to be dating as early as 2018 — confirmed their relationship the following year on “Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood.” The former couple ultimately split in 2020. While the pair were dating, controversy surrounding that relationship caused B2K to break up during their reunion tour.

Fizz told Grandberry while making his way to the stage alongside other B2K band mate Raz-B, “I think it wouldn’t be right if I didn’t take this moment, bro, to publicly apologize to you. I did some f–k s–t to my brother. … I’m not proud of it, man. So I want to say humbly and sincerely apologize to you for any turmoil and dysfunction I caused between you and your family.”

As the crowd cheered, Grandberry accepted the apology and said, “It’s all good, bro.” When the clip from the Los Angeles show went viral, fans’ opinions regarding the apology were split. Some felt Fizz’s public gesture was needed, while others claimed he’s apologizing because things didn’t work out the way he intended.

“The disrespect was public so I’m glad the apology was as well… ❤️.”

“Wish it never gotten to that point. But hopefully off cameras they are really straight.”

“Normalize holding ourselves accountable for the things we chose to do grown up Ish 🙌”

“People always apologize when things don’t work out in their favor. Had they still been together he wouldn’t be sorry.”

“He just wanna go back on tour since LHHH ain’t came back yet and his only fans ain’t makin no money 😂😂.”

“After all this time? after you done said that was never ya brother or friend ? Foh It Took For him & her to not work out for an apology he could’ve kept that.”

Jones hasn’t responded to Fizz’s and Grandberry’s onstage reunion, but she did post a video hours later seemingly on vacation. The reality star’s fans believed that she was “unbothered” by the apology.

“April said she ain’t apologizing for shit lol 🥴🥴🥴😂.”

“UNBOTHERED! Yes ma’am just the way you should be!”

“Y’all so petty! Why TF would she be apologizing?!’

In 2019, Grandberry announced that he would be headlining the “Millennium Tour” solo alongside Bow Wow by sharing an Instagram upload with the poster that featured Soulja Boy, Pretty Ricky, Lloyd, the Ying Yang Twins and Sammie.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
