Nigerian rap veteran, Illbliss has challenged the industry’s pioneers to release songs in light of their assertions that they paved the way for Nigerian musicians.
Illbliss was asked in an interview to weigh in on the recent disputes in the Nigerian music industry over artists who claim to have paved the way. The rapper said that everyone has the right to their own opinions and that if artists claim that a path wasn’t made for them, then that is their opinion.
Even though the older musicians didn’t give the younger artists record deals, he claimed that every young artist was inspired by some older artist.
The rapper challenged the OGs to release music while lamenting how ageism has grown to be such a problem in Nigeria.
Considering how hard the younger artists are working, he said he doesn’t enjoy the energy of the OGs.
