Nigerian singer Paul Okoye, widely known as Rudeboy, has added his voice to the ongoing exchange between fellow musicians Eedris Abdulkareem and Burna Boy
The feud ignited when Eedris Abdulkareem criticized Burna Boy, accusing him of plagiarism and asserting that the acclaimed artist received no support in Nigeria for his music career. In response, Rudeboy found the entire situation amusing and took to social media to express his views.
Rudeboy specifically targeted Eedris Abdulkareem, slamming him for consistently belittling other musicians whenever he gets the chance. In a post on his social media, Rudeboy stated, “Every eke market day we go de hear ‘I fought for the industry.’ Na me cook de food wey una dey chop. I go just de laugh.”
He went on to share his perspective on an incident that occurred over 20 years ago, revealing, “Over 20yrs I have kept silence about what really transpired, how we top Nigerian artists as of then agreed with one voice about payment conditions and treatments on the same 50cent show, only for this greedy guy to go behind and collect peanuts.”
Rudeboy questioned Eedris Abdulkareem’s expectation of VIP treatment considering the minimal payment received, and he criticized Eedris for consistently insulting various artists at every opportunity.
As the verbal exchange between Eedris Abdulkareem and Burna Boy continues, Rudeboy’s comments have added another layer to the unfolding drama in the Nigerian music scene. Fans are now anticipating how the feud will progress and whether more artists will join the conversation.
