Telling Nigerians to support and Love Afrobeats artists, He revealed that Afrobeats has brought joy and undiluted entertainment in Nigeria and that the citizens should shun comparison.
In his tweets, he wrote:
“When I see people disrespecting our πs on this app or making silly comparisons, it actually upsets me. Give your πs their flowers while theyβre still here! They paved the way!
Davido showed me that getting plaques with afrobeat songs is possible, Wizkid showed me that where you come from doesnβt limit how far you can go, and Burna Boy showed me that delay is not denial.
Back in my CC days, Dice Ailes and I created a sound that birthed a whole new wave of afrobeats. Itβs so funny how today some people twist the narrative and say we copied a sound we created lol.
At the end of the day weβre all just playing our roles. One day weβll all die and it wonβt matter anymore. Afrobeats is one of the few things giving us joy in this country. Letβs just love and support our own. Itβs possible to hype your fave without putting down another artist.”
