Hip Hop singer, Paul Okoye also known as Rudeboy has weighed in on the online dispute between legendary rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem and Burna Boy.
Taking to his Instagram page, he criticized Eedris Abdulkareem for continually instigating conflicts with fellow artists. He highlighted Eedris’s history of insults and clashes with prominent figures such as 2baba, Psquare, Timaya, and D’banj, and condemned his latest focus on Burna Boy.
Paul remarked that Eedris Abdulkareem’s constant rhetoric about fighting for the music industry amuses him. He recalled how, two decades ago, Nigerian artists unified their stance on payment terms and treatment for a show featuring American rapper 50 Cent. Despite this solidarity, Eedris Abdulkareem covertly accepted little compensation behind their backs, which Paul finds ironic and laughable.
He mentioned that he had chosen to remain silent all this time about the incident.
He wrote;
“Every Eke market day we go dey hear “I fought for the industry” na me cook dey food wey una dey chop” I go just dey laugh.
Now you want reply with music, you go reply taya.
Over 20 years I have kept silent about what really transpired, how the top Nigerian artists as of then agreed with one voice, about payment conditions and treatments on the same 50-cent show. Only for this greedy guy to go behind and collected peanut. You dey expect VIP treatment on top peanut payment?
You keep insulting any artiste at every opportunity, if is not Tuface, is Psquare, Timaya, D’banj, now na Burna. You go explain taya”.
