Winner of Big Brother Naija Season 5 themed ‘Lockdown’, Olamilekan Agbeleshe, better known as Laycon has slammed a critic who said he doesn’t deserve to be called a rapper.
DRILLOGIST notes that the music industry and its fans have been divided lately following the comments made by Grammy-award-winning singer, Wizkid during an interview.
According to Wizkid, the Afrobeat genre of music is the new pop, he added that the rap genre of music is dead.
He said: “Afrobeats is the new pop, sold two million copies in America off of one song! Even some American artists don’t have a diamond record.
“If I’m being honest, I don’t listen to any other genre of music anymore. don’t listen to rap that shit is boring to me. It’s dead now, it’s tired. These guys do the same shit, rap on the same beats and the same flows.”
Laycon slams critic over rap music
The drama between Laycon and the critic identified as Sir David Onyemaizu began on Twitter. The latter tweeted that he wonders if Twitter users have ears while noting that its only an unserious person that can call Laycon a rapper.
He wrote: Sometimes, you’d wonder if folks on this music Twitter have ears. They are calling rappers with flows & bars and you’re calling Laycon. Must be ment though.
Replying the tweet, Laycon said that the crirc looks like someone who is starved. He wrote:
Bro, you look like someone who is starved of every good thing in life. And I don’t know if you’re married or not but you look like someone who begs his wife for sex every time.
The critic replied Laycon that he should stop corrupting people’s hear and get a job as a plumber of influencer.
