Brymo Claims To Be Better Than Wizkid, Burna Boy, Davido
Nigerian Singer, Olawale Olofooro, also known as Brymo has taken to the social media to speak on his music compared to that of others as he noted that he was better than Wizkid, Burna boy and Davido, adding that they are still struggling to perform live and write songs stressing that what he sings is art compared to what others do.
This is in reply to a troll by a Nigerian identified as @ Emdee Ol, saying that Wizkid, Davido and Burna Boy are above him and listed the albums released by them: Burna Boy’s – African Giant Album, Wizkid’s Sound Man EP and Davido’s BMM and Risky.
He posted: “None of your music released over the past five years madewave like the above body of work I mentioned and cannot be compared with what these guys worked recently. I noticed you have been chasing cloud since.
Responding, Brymo said: “Make your far take a two year break without collabo, make we see who go listen to them in return. The favourites mentioned struggle to perform live and write songs, people believe they are big because westerners believe so.
He said, if people are judging all these by awards, local or foreign, I’ll have you know that I refused to play or even pay cash in some instances, that is why I am not decorated, so you people should – shut it.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
