See reactions below;

@BigShuga001: Winning in Nigeria only?? Listen short man… d only good rapper now in NG is blaqbonez and Ladipoe. Their songs cross boundaries not u and d rest washed up Ijebu-ode rappers.

@messyday1: most of these guys on your list don’t even rap again. they’re all singing how they played girl in lekki.

@johnolih17: Tryna win too 🙏🏾.

@kingfame_: There is more to music than just vibes ✌️, but some of us just don’t care about lyrical content anymore.Your album ‘A Study of Self worth’ impacted my life positively and made me better version of myself.Big shout out to all rappers out there putting meaningful lines together 💪.

@bigjinjah: I am sure you read the interview Egbon , plus wiz started as a rapper, both MIL and MLLe featured rappers, so as an OG your job is to understand his point of view and help shed 💡 My 2 cents,More love less ego.

@Himessi7 :  It’s disheartened that people find ways to pamper people’s flaws all because you support them or so. No one hates big wiz but when someone is wrong let them know. Just by saying rap is dead that may actually ruin upcoming artist plans and ambitions.

@Tomsexyne: I remember when Olamide and Phyno had the streets on chokehold, now both of them don turn singer. The truth is always hard to swallow, but doesn’t change the fact that it’s the truth.

@shopzynana: I believe rap worked in Nigeria for a while when people were trying to infuse the naija vibe to it. Most main stream rap songs are a combination of Afro beat artist and a rapper. Pride, arrogance and avoiding see finish has made the genre stagnant for a while.
