The American hip hop artist GAWVI has been dropped from his label Reach Records after he was accused of sexual misconduct. The label issued a statement about GAWVI's release on Monday, stating how it was a tough decision.
Their statement said,
"Due to behaviour that is inconsistent with our core values, we have ended our professional relationship with GAWVI. This was a tough decision for us because of the level of complexity and because we invest in our artists not just for their talent, but also as brothers and sisters in Christ. This is somehting we have been processing for over a year and have wrestled with what would be the right way forward. New details that were provided made us realize today's decision was necessary. We also want our actions to be a reflection of love, care and concern for those who fail and those who are affected by our failures."
The Christian hip hop artist GAWVI was accused of sending unsolicited pics of his private parts to multiple women while he was in a married status. A detailed story was published against him about the allegations via a Christian rap website called Rapzilla. His label concluded their statement by saying, "Each of us needs God's grace, and we invite you to pray for the families and individuals whose lives are being impacted. This is not a chance to throw anybody away. We continue to hope for restoration to be the outcome."
However, the artist GAWVI had also announced that his marriage with wife Brianna Azucena ended in 2020 and said that he made this hard decision to move forward in a direction that he felt would be the healthiest and even said people who knew him would have a clear idea about how much he hates divorce. He had deleted his post since a visual artist and designer, Cataphant, opened about his activity on Twitter.
She concluded her string of tweets explaining that she did all this because she's standing up for her friend, who was incorrectly represented in Gawvi's statement. Adding that statement painted a false picture of why GAWVI left his wife for someone else.

Gawvi Married Life With Ex-wife Brianna Segura
Gawvi married his former wife, Brianna Segura, in 2014. He had confessed his gratitude to his wife in 2018 for assisting him in discovering tranquility and love. He also shared how both of their parents were divorced, and they connected with that initially. He shared that the steady family battles contentions actually tormented his and Brianna's folks were also separated, which made them easily associated with each other.
However, their marriage ended in 2020, as announced by the artist Gawni in his since-deleted Instagram post. Brianna had also divulged her trauma in a collection of TikTok movies.
