Olabode Oladipupo Oladimeji, also known as Oladips, has apologised to Wizkid FC, and the same light has called out heavyweights like Olamide, Reminisce and Seriki.

You might recall that Oladips, who was recently in the news, dissed Wizkid in a freestyle he titled “she tell me say” after the singer made remarks against the hip-hop genre that drew a lot of criticism.

Following the announcement of a three-track EP named “Broke Boy,” which was inspired by Wizkid’s criticism of Nigerian rappers, Oladips came to social media on Monday, December 5, 2022, to apologise to Wizkid’s fanbase, claiming that Wizkid is not the problem with Nigerian hip-hop, but that the problem is within.

Continuing, he criticised Seriki, a well-known rapper, for not inviting him to a recent performance. Oladips claims that Seriki did not call him for the occasion because he did not want a fight to break out between the rapper and his former label head Reminisce.

Oladips continued by asserting that he is the victim of industry politics since the OGs, including notable figures like Olamide, have chosen to ignore him as a result of his falling out with one of them, Reminisce.

Oladips continued by saying that he hoped to be able to get along with the people he had previously mentioned.

In the lengthy post, he wrote:

Popular Nigerian indigenous rapper, Seriki, has lamented the neglect of Fuji music by front-bearers of the genre of music as well as television broadcasters.

Despite not being a Fuji musician, Seriki lamented the lack of acknowledgement for Fuji music by popular television stations.

He said:

“When you watch most cable TV stations’ top ten countdowns, you will never find Fuji music in that lineup and it baffles me a lot. These guys have a large fan base which I actually studied at some point in my career and it worked for me.”

The rapper urged media practitioners to do more in promoting the Fuji kind of music, which, according to Steve Ayorinde, former Commissioner of Lagos State, serves as inspiration for some of today’s most prominent music acts.

At the recently held Sikiru Ayinde Barrister Colloquium, Ayorinde argued that leading Afropop singers have at different times drawn inspiration from Fuji music.

In addition, The rapper, who recently speak with Jahbless during a recent live podcast, stated that he feels great when performing new freestyles at concerts even though he has a couple of hits.

The popular Nigerian indigenous rapper, Seriki, has revealed the reasons why he dislikes performing his hit songs on stage.

The rapper, while speaking with Jahbless during a recent live podcast, stated that he feels great when performing new freestyles at concerts even though he has a couple of hits.

Seriki, who described music as a pastime, said he receives more praise when he performs new freestyles at shows than when he performs his hit songs.

Narrating his recent experience, he said:

“During 9ice’s Bashorun Gaa’s concert recently, 9ice asked me what am I going to do and I said I will just do me. I wrote a song on my way to the concert.

I think it was about 16 or 24 bars and when I got on stage I spit that 24 bars that I wrote, trust me I felt better spitting a raw fresh bar than performing my hit songs because even if I had performed my hit song, it wouldn’t have gotten that standing ovation, so that’s the way I see music.”

Furthermore, he said, “I might be going to an event right now, I don’t necessarily have to perform my hit song, I can write probably 16 bars and people will still enjoy it even more than my hit song.”

Relieving his experience performing with Fuji musician, Saheed Osupa, the Lagos born musician said:

“Osupa once came to perform in my home town somewhere very close to Epe not knowing I’m from that village, when I saw him and greeted him, he gave me the mic to freestyle and the love was massive to the extent that my aunty was shocked that I am that popular.”

Nigerian rapper and performer Ibiyemi Sulaimon, popularly known as Seriki, has revealed and outlined what could ruin the Nigerian music Industry.

There is no denying that the Nigerian music scene is now undergoing a wave it has never experienced before.

However, Seriki warns that the money factor might lead to its sudden decline.

Speaking with Jahbless on his podcast, Original Intelligence, The rapper revealed that many gatekeepers in the Nigerian music industry are now more concerned with money than with talent.

According to Seriki, a typical media personality in today’s music industry insists on being compensated before presenting a song, which was not formerly the case.

On those principles, the hip-hop head warned that if the habit of valuing money over talent continues, the Nigerian music business will be overrun with inferior artists.

The “Ijo” hitmaker went on to discuss his future, his new project titled “Sule,”.

In the Nigerian music scene, there has been a lot of ill blood and beef between artists resulting in diss songs being released.

The conflict usually begins when an artist believes he or she should be receiving more attention than their peers, or when envy and greed are present.

Mp3bullet.ng compiled a list of Top Nigerian Diss Songs that shook the Industry.

• RELATED: Top iconic beefs that rocked the Nigerian Music Industry
• RELATED: Hottest 2021 celebrity controversies in the Nigerian music industry

Mallam Spicey- 1005 Naira

When you look back on Terry G’s career, you’ll see one major blunder: putting Mallam Spicey to the test with the lyric “me I no be Mallam Spicey, Me I no dey stop for the fourth bar over.”

in response, Mallam Spicey dropped one of the hottest and most blatant diss tunes ever in Nigeria on Terry G.

“1005 Naira (Free Cure)” was recorded entirely on the beat of Terry G’s hit “Free Madness” and was followed by a video ridiculing Terry G.

Unfortunately, we didn’t get to hear much from Mallam Spicey after this.

Quotable Lyrics

“Your 1 bling, your 2 bling, your 3 bling, your 4 bling, your 5 bling, your 6 bling… All of them together na 6k“…

“Say na you dey ginger the ginger, say na you dey swagger the swagger, Ole boy I no dey feel your swagger, your petty swagger too local”

Tony Tetuila- Omode Meta

Tony Tetuila created the mega-hit “Omode Meta” released around 1999 after quitting the Remedies, which was a diss track directed at former group mates Eddy Montana and Eedris Adbulkareem.

Tony Tetuila featured 2baba(2face Idibia), Blackface, and Ruff, Rugged & Raw, a rap group. This is one of the most well-known songs from Nigeria’s hip-hop history’s early years.

Quotable Lyrics;

“The young Mcs na who you be trying to contest with me
When am on the M i c dema go be in the remedies say that can go and I go on and on
And I can keep the party dropping bomb untill the break of dawn
Way back before I used to hang out with the wrong kind of fellows
They started getting jealous that was callous and they got rebellious”

Davido- Fem

If you are surprised to see this song on this list, then you haven’t listened to the lyrics. After going on a Social media pilgrimage for months, Davido returned to the scene with “Fem.”

The song was a hit, not just because of its beat but because of its lyrics. Certain lyrics like “Tell odogwu say we like to party” suggested that the song was a medium to throw shots at Burna Boy who he allegedly had issues with.

Furthermore, the song would go on to be a protest anthem during the revolutionary 2020 #Endsars protests where protesters used it to hush Government Officials trying to talk to them.

Quotable lyrics;

“Person wey dey find the pity
Omo no dey give me itty bitty
Just call me, you wan know 30BG
You go know 30BG, when you see 30BG
You wey dey find the pity
Tell odogwu say we like to party
Just call me, you wan know 30BG
You go know 30BG when you see 30BG”

Ruggedman- Ehen!

Ruggedman exploded onto the scene with no regard for anyone’s face, and it showed in his epic diss tune, “Ehen!”.

He came out swinging for the industry’s prominent stars at the time. Eedris Abdulkareem, Maintain, and Rasqui were all impacted by what Ruggedy Baba was dishing out.

That catapulted him to a new level in Nigerian hip-hop at the time, and he garnered a sizable fanbase as a result.

The Song was a Hit and changed the Nigeria Rap scene.

Quotable Lyrics;

“No be secret say remedies dey need remedy, I hear their rap, I laugh, to me nah like comedy/ Eedris and my 5 year old nephew rap the same way, like say dem born dem on the same day/ Wetin him dey talk I no hear, but I fear, when him “mighty” and people start to cheer”

Kelly Handsome- Igwe

Kelly Hansome was a known troublemaker and hitmaker in 2009-10, Picking beef with any and everyone once upon a time.

He’s dissed Kennis Music, MI, Ice Prince, and Jesse Jagz, but none of those diss singles compares to “Igwe (Kom Kom)”, a masterpiece he created to diss Don Jazzy, Dbanj, Wande Coal (Mo-Hits at the time), and Terry G.

The song is still one of the funniest jabs at a whole record label in Nigerian history. Thrown in the hilarious makeshift animation video, and we have something that will always be remembered for years to come.

Wande Coal- Who Born this Maga

Wande Coal was the sole member of the defunct Mo Hits to answer to Kelly’s diss with his “Who Born the Maga” track off the M2M album, which featured Kayswitch as a guest artist. Wande Coal directed the video.

Quotable Lyrics;

“Why you come dey find wetin no find you
You put your mouth for wetin no concern you
You be Arsenal omo I be Man U
You con dey vex because we dey outshine you eh
I don’t want to harm you
No be threaten na the truth I dey yarn you
Before my fans go gather off handle you
You go think say na molue jam you eh”

M.I Abaga- Beef

You’re sure to get a lot of stones thrown at you when you’re perhaps the hottest name in Nigerian hip-hop.

That’s what M.I was up against in 2010, when Iceberg Slim and Kelly Hansome, among others, took separate swings at him.

M.I’s reaction wasn’t a natural one. Instead, as the astute businessman that he is, he responded to both of them, as well as a slew of others, in his song Beef, which was released alongside his album MI2.

Quotable Lyrics;

“See musicians tryna beef me for real son
Maybe they doing it to promote they album
They know that using my name will help ’em sell some
So Iceberg its alright, you’re welcome
But I’m not in their league help me tell them
The Super Eagles don’t play against the Falcons
See worwor pikin dey form handsome
Kelechukwu clap for yourself, well done”

9ice ft Seriki- Talk I am Listening

Ruggedman has been the subject of a number of diss songs, and it’s easy to see why.

There was controversy in 2010 between Ruggedman, 9ice, and Toni Payne (9ice’s wife at the time), which resulted in a leaked conversation, a barrage of accusations, and a slew of diss recordings.

But, of all the diss songs that have been released, this one has taken the cake.

With the help of Seriki, 9ice fully reversed the script on Ruggedman (his one-time mentor). It helped expose Seriki to the Nigerian hip-hop scene in certain ways.

Ruggedman eventually replied to the diss with “A Word Is Enuff For The 9ice” before the two went on to settle their differences and collaborate on several songs.

Worthy mentions

• Vector – The truth ( Mode 9)

Nigerian rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem has released another tune titled, “Still Dey Jaga Jaga.”

On this tune, he teams up with fellow rapper Seriki, who delivers on the last verse, and singer Mo who took up the chorus.

According to the singer;

General Olusegun Obasanjo, The Quintessential Administrator, the President who teaches his predecessors and successors The Art of Governance, the Only one who knows it all – he was a Nigerian PRESIDENT for EIGHT years, and twenty years or so earlier was a Military Head of State and Government of Nigeria!

The artist-producer duos have been an essential part of the Nigerian music industry. Many of our favourite Afropop hits were crafted from the prolific relationships formed through frequent collaboration by artists and their producers.

When you listen to a certain artist’s song, you can almost guess the producer of the song, this is what an artist-producer relationship can lead to.

• RELATED: 10 Artists who have won The Grammy and Oscar Awards
• RELATED: Top 5 Naija Music Producers who are also artists

Don Jazzy and D’banj

These two held the Music Industry for almost a decade in their palms. The story of how they came to start from the UK where Don Jazzy was a producer working for JJC and D’banj was a security guard with dreams of becoming a superstar.

The story goes that after becoming friends, the two came back to Nigeria to pursue their music careers with D’banj as the frontman and Jazzy as the magic fingers. Their first release was “Tongolo” which was a smash hit.

Over the years, their partnership churned out more hits than any artist in their time could boast of. The two were also founders of one of the biggest labels at that time, Mo’hits records that gave artists like Wande Coal, D’Prince, Dr Sid and the rest a platform to shine.

It also birthed great international acclaim and one of their songs, ‘Scape Goat” caught Kanye West‘s eye who decided to sign them to G.O.O.D Music. But what should have been the beginning of new things in their partnership led to the end of a decade long fruitful collaboration.

ID Cabasa and 9ice

In the early 2000s, 9ice was the poster boy for ID Cabsa’s Coded Tunes record that also housed artists like Seriki, 2Phat, Reminisce, Lord of Ajasa.

9ice and ID Cabasa’s relationship is more of a brotherhood than an artist-producer relationship. 9ice’s first two albums, Certificate and Gongo Aso were produced by ID Cabasa.

“Gongo Aso” was however the album that showed more launched both of them’s career to another phase. The album remains one of Nigeria’s best albums to be released.

Although the two of them rarely collaborate on projects, their relationship still remains great. 9ice named his seventh album after ID Cabasa.

Olamide and Pheelz

Just like Don Jazzy and D’banj’s story, Olamide and Pheelz became friends while under ID Cabasa. Olamide released his first album, “Rapsodi” under Coded Tunes while Pheelz was an interning producer in the label.

When Olamide left coded tunes to establish YBNL, he took Pheelz with him. Their relationship can be described as Mutualism (A symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit.

The both of them became a major driving force in each other’s career. As Olamide’s popularity rose, so did Pheelz’s own too.

As a matter of speaking, Pheelz has produced almost 80% of Olamide’s songs. Olamide’s third album, “Baddest Guy Ever Liveth” was entirely produced by Pheelz.

For every Evolution process, Olamide achieved, Pheelz was there in charge of the soundboard and sonic directions.

2Baba and OJB Jezreel

One would argue that OJB Jezreel is Nigeria’s best producer to ever exist and they won’t be wrong. OJB was a versatile producer and an artist at the same time, of which many many music producers apart from Don Jazzy can’t boast of.

His music relationship with 2Baba would always remain relevant given the impact it had on the industry, and they were a perfect fit.

From 2baba‘s classic “Face to Face” album that produced hits like “African Queen“, “Ole“, “Nfana Ibaga” to the ever-flourishing, “Grass to Grace” album, these two had us feeling every emotion possible.

This is one relationship that had a strong impact on contemporary pop even with the arrival of Don Jazzy and D’banj.

Dagrin and Sossick

Dagrin and Sossick were like Batman and Robin. These two would have made more impact on the Hip-Hop scene if not for the death of Dagrin.

Sossick started working with Dagrin in 2006 but it wasn’t until 2009 that their partnership produced fruit with the release of “Pon Pon”

Although Sossick didn’t entirely produce Dagrin‘s popular album, “CEO,” one can’t deny the impact he had on it.

Burna Boy and Leriq

Burna Boy and Leriq have been partners back from their days in Aristokrat label. In fact Leriq produced the whole of Burna’s debut album, “L.I.F.E” which produced hits like “Like To Party“, “Run my Race“, “Yawa Dey.”

Although Leriq hasn’t produced a full album for Burna after “L.I.F.E”, he produced Burna’s “Redemption” EP.

He is also responsible for the production of some of Burna’s hit songs like “Rockstar”, “Monsters You Made“, “Way Too Big“, “No Fit Vex“.

Davido and Shizzi

Shizzi is Davido’s most credible and dependable producer. The first time the two worked on a project was on “Dami Duro” which was initially produced by Davido himself until Shizzi came on board and made changes.

This move would be the beginning of their fruitful relationship which would see the birth of hit songs like “Overseas”, “Skelewu”, “Gobe”, “Ekuro“, “Tchelete (Good Life)”, Fans Mi”, “The Sound”, “Gbagbe Oshi”, “Like That”, “Blow My Mind”.

Wizkid and Sarz

The reason why these two are on the list isn’t about the number of songs they have worked on but because of the magic they always make whenever collaborate.

While Samklef was the main guy on Wizkid’s first album, “Superstar“, Sarz made his entrance into Wizkid’s second album, “Ayo“, producing just two songs off the album.

The biggest fruit to come out of their partnership was Drake’s “One Dance” song which was initially produced by Sarz and written by Wizkid.

Though it could be argued that Wizkid’s “Sound From The Other side” is one of their best collaboration.

Masterkraft and Flavour

Flavour popularized Afro Highlife with his songs and Masterkraft was one of the major driving force behind this.

These two have together crafted quality album that has gone to become cult classics. Despite the fact the Nigerian industry has unofficially seen Lagos as its capital, these have managed to break into the mainstream scene.

Falz and Sess

Falz and Sess relationship started with Falz’s second album, “Stories that Touch” and continued unto “27” and “Moral Instructions” which is the highest point of their relationship so far.

The two have undeniable chemistry when it comes to songs. Their synergy is easy to spot with the ease at which Sess matches Falz tempo by tempo.

Reminisce and Sarz

Reminisce and Sarz have come a long way. Although Sarz is yet to produce an album for Reminisce, the longevity of their working relationship is a cause for envy.  The first song they collaborated on was on Jahbless‘ Joor Oh. “Kako Bi Chicken” was their second partnership.

In their 10 years of working relationship, the two have churned out hits like “Asalamalekun“, “Oja“, “Instagram“, “Ogaranya”

Naira Marley and Rexxie

While their relationship is still one of the youngest on this list, their less than five-year relationship has managed to establish both of them in the limelight.

Although Rexxie was a result of Chinko Ekun‘s “Able God” and Naira Marley‘s popularity was as a result of “Issa Goal“, their partnership in songs helped established them in the street-hop scene.

This partnership has birthed songs like ‘Am I a Yahoo Boy?’, “Soapy“, “Tesumole“, “Pxta“, “As E Dey Go’, “Idi Oremi“, “Chi Chi“, e.t.c
