In the meantime, Iyanya has received advice from a fan to collaborate with Grammy-winning Burna Boy, a fellow Nigerian musician, on a single as it would help him become successful.
The fan offered the suggestion in response to Iyanya’s tweet about the astronomical cost of promoting a song and shooting a video.
The fan, who tagged the two artists in his tweet, expressed his desire to see the “One Side‘ crooner reach the same heights as his contemporaries.
According to the fan, he wants Iyanya at the top as the singer deserves it.
The “Kukure” hitmaker responded by quoting the tweet, claiming that although he is already successful, working with Burna Boy will undoubtedly increase the number of people that hear him.
He wrote, ‘I Dey Top already, a feature with @burnaboy will definitely get more people to hear me, especially the new diverse audience’.
