slowthai has apologised to Katherine Ryan, after he was accused of being misogynistic towards the comedian at last night’s NME Awards.

The rapper said that his hero award from the night should instead be given to Katherine following his behaviour.

Tweeting NME, slowthai wrote: ‘please forward my award to @kathbum for she is the hero of the year. what started as a joke between us escalated to a point of shameful actions on my part. i want to unreservedly apologise, there is no excuse and I am sorry. i am not a hero.

‘katherine, you are a master at your craft and next time i’ll take my seat and leave the comedy to you. to any woman or man who saw a reflection of situations they’ve been in in those videos, i am sorry. i promise to do better. let’s talk here.’
