The artist, whose real name is Olawale Ashimi, took to his Instagram page to express his opinion, arguing that men should not apologise when they believe a woman is at fault. His stance quickly drew attention, with many users weighing in on the sensitive topic.

According to Brymo, men who choose to apologise under such circumstances are setting themselves up for hardship, a claim that has since divided opinions across online platforms.

He wrote:

“Nobody deserves to suffer than men who apologize to women when the women are wrong. And suffer they will from here, and for the rest of humanity’s earthly existence,”

The comment has since triggered mixed reactions, as some social media users criticised his viewpoint, describing it as problematic, while others engaged in broader conversations about accountability and dynamics in relationships.

Brymo, known for his often unfiltered takes on social and personal issues, continues to generate discussion with his outspoken opinions, further reinforcing his reputation as an artist unafraid to challenge conventional thinking.

A body of work that once again affirms his reputation as one of Nigeria’s most daring and intellectually driven musicians.

The EP is a striking display of Brymo’s artistic depth, blending sensational lyricism with captivating vocal delivery. His voice moves effortlessly across each track, carrying layers of emotion, symbolism, and intent.

Backed by rich, immersive production, SHAITAN: Telekinesis is the kind of project that commands full attention—one that listeners are unlikely to skip once play is pressed.

Brymo has never been an artist who plays it safe. Since the start of his solo career, he has consistently positioned himself as a thinker, a rebel, and a cultural preservationist, using music as a tool for expression, resistance, and reflection.

With SHAITAN: Telekinesis, he once again embraces that identity, pushing creative boundaries and challenging conventional narratives within Afrobeats.

Leading up to the release, Brymo teased fans with several songs that heightened anticipation for the project, further solidifying his status as one of the most talked-about and streamed artists in the country.

The EP opens with its title track, “Mother And God.” A flawless performance adds a compelling dynamic to the record, making it one of the standout moments on the EP.

With SHAITAN: Telekinesis, Brymo delivers more than just music. The project serves as a statement—one that confronts society, spirituality, and human nature through indigenous language, symbolism, and storytelling. Each track feels deliberate, layered, and rooted in deep cultural consciousness.

In an industry largely dominated by catchy hooks and dance-centric sounds, SHAITAN: Telekinesis stands apart as an intellectually charged body of work. It challenges norms, provokes thought, and reconnects listeners to the power of storytelling and identity, reaffirming Brymo’s place as one of Nigeria’s most fearless and original musical voices.

Prolific Nigerian singer and songwriter Brymo has stirred controversy after openly criticizing some of the country’s biggest music stars, including Burna Boy and Davido, for what he describes as an overindulgence in remix collaborations with rising artists.

The outspoken artist aired his frustration on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, through a post shared on his Instagram status, a message that quickly went viral across social platforms.

In his blunt address to what he termed “Nigerian mainstream A-listers,” Brymo wrote: “Burna, Davido, and Co., stop jumping on every hit song in a remix, especially releases by newer acts… let other artistes find their own way.”

He went further to question the motive behind such collaborations, claiming they often benefit the established stars more than the emerging ones. “The pretending to be helping them reach higher is a ridiculous watch… stop seeking relevance in the efforts of ones who know little about the business… it’s vile!!” he added.

Brymo’s remarks highlight his concern that remix culture, while seemingly supportive, may stifle the independent growth of new artists. According to him, rather than serving as genuine mentorship, these collaborations could be a strategy for big names to maintain visibility.

The post has ignited discussions among fans and industry watchers about the ethics of remixes in Afrobeats, raising questions about whether such practices uplift or overshadow budding talent. So far, neither Burna Boy nor Davido nor their teams have issued a response.

Brymo, widely recognised for his distinct sound and often unfiltered opinions, has long been an advocate for artistic freedom and fairness in the Nigerian music industry. His latest outburst adds another chapter to his reputation as one of the few voices challenging mainstream industry norms.

Following the recent change in the national anthem, singer Brymo has proclaimed President Tinubu as his Greatest Of All Time (G.O.A.T) among all previous presidents. Brymo expressed his joy about the change.

The controversial singer shared this declaration in an Instagram Story post on May 30, 2024. He posted the lyrics of the new national anthem, highlighting the first stanza and drawing comparisons between Africa and Nigeria to “polygamy” and a “family unit.”

He said, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is officially my G.O.A.T of all the Nigerian presidents! Read the lyrics of the new national anthem. The first stanza is all you need; it asserts Nigeria for the motherland and now Africa can be the fatherland and be a symbol of polygamy and we can all focus on one family unit. My favourite part is ‘In brotherhood, we stand.’ We are all now members of the greatest cult on earth. Nigeria is now the only brotherhood that every boy and ambitious girl must belong to in this country. I am very happy.”

Recall that the Senate and the House of Representatives recently approved legislation to change the national anthem from “Arise, O Compatriots” to “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.” On May 29, 2024, President Tinubu signed the bill into law, officially enacting the change.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced this on Wednesday, May 29, during a joint session of the National Assembly, which also marked the 25th anniversary of Nigeria’s 4th Republic.

The change elicited a range of reactions from Nigerians on social media platforms, including confusion, anger, and frustration, while others, like Brymo, expressed happiness. Nigerian celebrities also voiced their opinions on the swift reversion to the previous national anthem.

It is noteworthy that “Nigeria, We Hail Thee” was written by Lillian Jean Williams, a British expatriate who lived in Nigeria during its independence era, with music composed by Frances Berda. In contrast, “Arise, O Compatriots” was written by Pa Benedict Odiase, a Nigerian composer, and adopted in 1978.
