Although Cynthia Morgan has not recently disclosed any plans to return to the music industry, she is tired of people bothering her about it.

The former singer addressed those who were calling for her comeback in her Instagram stories.

Cynthia observed that the majority of these individuals never contributed financially to her work and did not promote her while she was still a prominent figure in the field. She came to the conclusion that they had been lowkey fans all along.

“Most of the people obsessed about me going back to music never supported me with a dollar or a good word while I was at it. #Life so Y’all were lowkey fans”.

Another sentiment expressed by the Edo State native is that she wishes she could change her state of origin.

” If I had one wish, it will be to change my state of origin.”

Recall that the singer had spoken out about the snubs she experienced as an up-and-coming artiste in the Nigerian music industry.

Morgan disclosed this while replying to a Twitter influencer, @Kussman who implied that the singer treated him badly when she was still vibrant in the music industry.

In the now-deleted tweets, @kussman wrote, “I no fit talk wetin Cynthia Morgan do me that year she dey hot. My God in his infinite mercies has humbled her. Now we both have zero hit songs in the last eight years.”

Replying to the tweet, Morgan, took to her Instagram page, @trulymadrina, where she slammed Kussman for the remark.

According to her, she had also been at the end of snobbish attitude by big names in the music scene, including, singer Omawunmi and Mavin Boss, Don Jazzy.

“Isn’t this witchcraft in broad day light?,” she wrote via her Instagram stories on Sunday, “Did I ever tell you guys how I was snubbed by Omawunmi, Helen Paul and Flavour in my up and coming days? Even Don Jazzy? Lol. Some people (are) pathetic.

“And these were all entertainers like me. Not to talk of you that I don’t even know from anywhere. Nawa.”

Battle of Hits/Verzuz is basically a battle between two artists in the same genre who pits ten of their best songs against each other.

It all began with American producers, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz having producers clash and from there it spiraled into an entertainment program that would see artists like Nelly, Snoop Dogg, DMX, Brandy, Monica, Teddy Riley, Babyface participating in the event.

In Nigeria, Artists and Producers weren’t left out of this. Sarz and Shizzi battled each other resulting in reactions from Social Media. This also led to more battle of hits like Mastercraft VS Pheelz, Rexxie VS Kel P, M.I Abaga VS Naeto C.
