Iyanya, who has made significant contributions to the music industry, happened to come across a tweet from one Otunba who was mocking a comment by Ubi Franklin during a show.
According to Otunba, Ubi Franklin praised Burna Boy, Davido, and Wizkid for their efforts to spread Afrobeats around the world. While appreciating these three musicians, he made sure to include Iyanya as well.
The Twitter user who disagreed with Ubi Franklin’s assertion that Iyanya has contributed to Afrobeat blasted Ubi Franklin’s remark.
He wrote;
“Ubi Franklin gave shout out to Davido, Wizkid, Rema and Burna Boy for what they’re doing to Afrobeats internationally and he mentioned Iyanya too.”
Reacting to this, the “Kukere” singer criticized Otunba for his mockery and said that only someone who is brainless will undermine his relevance.
He wrote;
“And who are you again? Only a brainless person will try to undermine my contribution to this game till date. You definitely are clueless.”
