Nigerian hip-hop star, Eedris Abdulkareem, has berated his younger colleague, Burna Boy, over the comment he made sometime back.
While speaking on a podcast recently, the Jaga Jaga hitmaker berated Burna Boy for saying that he never received any help from his senior colleagues in the music industry.
In 2020, the Atlantic Records artist caused a stir on the internet when he claimed that none of his senior colleagues had prepared him for success. According to Burna, no one in the Nigerian music business has ever done anything for him as they were too busy doing things for themselves or criticizing others’ achievement.
While speaking on the Podcast, Eedris lashed out at Burna Boy. He said;
“You hear someone like Burna Boy say no one helped him in Nigeria. That’s stupid talk.”
In a now deleted post on X, Burnaboy slammed Eedris, saying he doesn’t blame him for making such comment. He went on to state that he wishes Nigerians did not contribute financially to the singer’s health care when he needed a kidney transplant.
