Nigerian rapper, Oladips, has released a diss track in response to Grammy winner, Wizkid saying “rap is dead.”
The Afrobeats superstar whose real name is Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, was recently interviewed by 10 Magazine.
In the conversation, he referred to Afrobeats as the “new pop” and claimed that he does not listen to rap music because it is dead.
According to Wizkid: “It’s dead now, it’s tired. These guys do the same shit, rap on the same beats, same flows.”
Following Wizkid’s statement that rap is dead, indigenous Nigerian rapper, Ola Dips dropped a diss track for Wizkid calling the superstar “Mr She Tell Me Say” and all sort of names.
This didn’t sit well with Wizkid die-hard fans, who trolled the rapper for releasing a diss track.
