Iyanya fumes over comparison with Wizkid.
Nigerian singer Iyanya has reacted after a social media user downplayed his musical achievements while explaining why Wizkid is “hated” in the music industry.
A social media user with the X handle @itzbasito had written: “Wizkid’s only crime is surpassing the benchmark set for him and becoming the benchmark himself” to which another user @Xperience_Snr reposted, saying expectations for Wizkid is for him to end up like Iyanya and Samklef.
The X user wrote, “Same reason why Drake gets a lot of hate. The whole entertainment industry didn’t expect that little tiny white boy to get that far.
“Wizkid was supposed to end up like Samklef and Iyanya.”
His argument didn’t sit well with Iyanya, especially the insinuation that his once-buzzing career didn’t live up to expectations.
Quoting the tweet, Iyanya fumed: “You will end up like your father.”
In another post, the singer lamented: “This space is toxic, y’all just wake up and undermine a creative’s years of work.”
