hautest_topics: This is rude and unacceptable, not okay. Sometimes we must talk with wisdom, afrobeats is awesome but foreign to the international market and that is one of the reasons you and the others have had an opportunity to carve a niche for yourselves, it’s not because you’re special, that’s a dumb thing to say, rap on the other hand belongs to the international audience and the likes of MI and Vector might not have that opportunity, so the fact that you were able to gain international acclaim and exposure doesn’t mean you’re better it just means you were in the right position to do so, please keep your comments constructive, I can’t overemphasize this, don’t just talk because you can.
