BNXN throws insult at CKay for saying he backed out of a song because of Blaqbonez.
Nigerian Afro-fusion act, Daniel Benson, better known by his stage name BNXN, reacted to CKay’s claim that he backed out of ‘Hallelujah’ after hearing rapper Blaqbonez’s verse.
Ckay revealed on June 15, 2023, that the ‘Gwagwalada‘ crooner had withdrawn from appearing on his latest song, Hallelujah.
He stated that there were going to be various versions of the track with BNXN, Seyi Vibez, and Blaqbonez, but the first two could not be done due to personal issues.
Ckay stated that BNXN dropped out after hearing Blaqbonez’s verse, whilst Seyi’s crew simply did not provide him with clear input.
However, the ‘Love Nwantiti’ singer stated that Hallelujah marks his journey from a disadvantaged upbringing to where he is today.
He wrote; “The bnxn version of HALLELUJAH may never come out. he asked to be ‘excused’ from the song when he heard blaqbonez’ verse and i simply granted his wish. seyi vibez version may also never come out because his team didn’t clear it. maybe the verse was too personal, maybe it was too deep…i fully respect it.
But at the end of the day, HALLELUJAH represents my journey from the trenches to where i am today. Blaqbonez is my bro for real and we share a lot more than a lot of you might think, but that’s a story for another day. I appreciate the love and support of the TRUE fans. i won’t be here without you.”

BNXN, who was disappointed by the claim, shaded him on Twitter late on Thursday night, June 15, 2023, using a Yoruba term.
He wrote; “Awon werey 😪”
Awon werey 😪

Additionally, Blaqbonez responded to the news by posting a hilarious photo of himself shading BNXN.
