Why I Won’t Invest In Upcoming Artistes – Zlatan Ibile Opens Up

Zlatan Ibile, the popular Nigerian rapper, has disclosed why he won’t invest in up-and-coming talents.

Speaking on the Adesope Live show, Zlatan explained that investing in up-and-coming artistes was risky, stressing that he is unsure if such investment would yield profit.

He emphasised that he is in the music industry strictly for business and financial stability.

“I will rather go buy a house rather than put money on these artistes that I’m not sure will be successful or not,”
he said.

“The reason I am making music is for financial stability. My goal is to be able to be responsible and financially stable. In the beginning of my career, I wasn’t balanced. I suffered from pressure and anxieties.”

Zlatan, however, said he is willing to collaborate with up-and-coming artistes, stressing that he was giving similar assistance while coming up.

I’m Not New To Their Lies, This Is Tinubu’s Supporter – Mr Macaroni Reacts To R*pe Accusation

Nigerian skitmaker and Nollywood actor Debo Adedayo, popularly known as Mr Macaroni, has expressed outrage at a social media user over a r*pe accusation.

An 𝕏 user had accused Macaroni of r*ping a 17-year-old girl and used the police to oppress the victim’s family.

The statement reads, “This guy actually r*ped 17 year old girl and used police to oppress her family. Now he’s an activist?”

In response, Mr Macaroni pointed out that the allegation is from a supporter of President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC), stressing that he is not new to their lies.

He wrote, “Normally I shouldn’t respond to a tweet like this because i would just be giving it more Visibility. But because of the nature of the horrendous and distasteful accusation, I have to. This is a Tinubu and APC supporter.

“I am not new to their lies and attacks anytime I criticize their evil government! But this isn’t just any other attack, this is a false accusation of r*pe which any sane human being should never use as propaganda simply because I am holding our government accountable as every good citizen of this country should.

“But again, this is an APC supporter. I do not naturally expect any form of sanity or dignity from him or her. However if we don’t take actions against deranged individuals like this one, they will continue to infest society with their disease and project onto others who they really are.

“I checked their profile and saw that this is what they have been doing. Praising the President and government, then attacking anyone who dares criticise them. I would appreciate any information about this individual that can help us take necessary action against this raving lunatic.

“This tweet also serves as an opportunity to strongly refute this ridiculous accusation and any other kind from the infested supporters of the APC because I expect their disease to continue to spread as I won’t stop criticizing this abomination of a government!!!”

Wizkid Is My Senior In Music Industry – Olamide Clarifies

Famous Nigerian music star Olamide Baddo, has stated that his colleague Wizkid, 35, has been in the music industry longer than he has.

The duo gained prominence in 2010 with Wizkid gaining popularity with ‘Holla AT Your Boy’ released in January, and Olamide hitting the reckoning with ‘Eni Duro’ a few months later.

They were also both nominated in the Next Rated category at the 2011 Headies Awards, which Wizkid won.

Consequently, the popular notion has been that they are industry mates.

However, in a recent interview with streamer Azeeez, Olamide clarified that Wizkid is older than him in the music industry with about two years.

“Wizkid and I didn’t start doing music at the same time. He started a year or two before me, he was already putting out music before I came,”
Olamide stated.

It would be recalled that Wizkid was earlier featured in ace rapper M.I’s hit single ‘Fast Money/Fast Cars’ in 2008, about two years before he became famous.
