English-born Nigerian Rapper, Babatunde Olusegun Adewale, popularly known by his stage name Modenine, has dissociated self from Wizkid’s criticism of Nigerian rappers.
In an Instagram interview with his fans, the seasoned rapper clarified the situation.
He was responding after his teammate Wizkid said that “rap is dead” and disparaged Nigerian rappers as being broke a few hours earlier.
Since he is a lyricist and not a rapper, Modenine acknowledged that he had been asked by fans to express his opinion on the matter. He responded that it was none of his business, though.
He said: “First of all I wasn’t even born in Nigeria one, number two I don’t live in Nigeria, number three I am not a rapper so now where does that concern me? I don’t live in Nigeria, I wasn’t born in Nigeria I am not a rapper I am a lyricist e no concern me, it is up to you to join the gang”.
Rap Radio Africa is not owned by him, but he encouraged rappers to join it in order to support them and advance the development of hip-hop and rap culture in Africa.
