Popular Nigerian rapper, Ladipoe, recently made the news after he gave his opinion about Wizkid’s controversial comment on rap music.
The More Love, Less Ego star’s interview where he said rap is dead went viral and it got a number of Nigerian rappers reacting with displeasure. Not stopping there, Wizkid also called them dumb and broke over their reactions to his interview.

In a new development, Ladipoe, who had also reacted on Twitter at the start of the whole issue, shed more light on his stance during a recent interview.
According to him, he was not triggered by Wizkid’s interview because the singer was not specific with names or the country he was referring to. He however noted that a lot of Nigerian rappers then reacted and got petty which led to Wizkid also responding with Snapchat posts.

The rapper said:
“Personally, I think everybody is entitled to their own opinion and I felt no kind of way, in fact, it didn’t even sound like he was being specific about any country, just his preference for rap music and I think that a lot of people reacted to that here in Nigeria and then from there, everybody just got petty. Some petty things on the timeline were being said to him and then of course he had his own responses through his Snap.
“I saw those, and I think if there’s anything that made me feel a way is that nobody needs to be insulted. Everybody is out here really pushing an art form that they truly believe in and that is in them. And a lot of people have been seeking validation because they think that maybe they’re on the wrong path and they’re wasting their time. Wiz is so influential and his words have impact.”
