“Nigerian rappers that survived ‘hip hop is dead’ watching Afrobeat artists go through their own,”

Meanwhile, skit maker Mr Macaroni has berated singer Wizkid for shading veteran producer and music executive, Don Jazzy.
Recall Wizkid took a swipe at Don Jazzy while reacting to a shade fired at him by Mavin signee, Ladipoe.
Wizkid boasted that he is “never chatting to anyone signed to an influencer” when his attention was called to rapper Ladipoe’s shade.
He also retweeted some tweets suggesting that he was referring to Don Jazzy as a mere social media influencer.
Reacting via his X handle on Monday afternoon, Mr Macaroni said while Don Jazzy is influential across music, contents, films, and brands, the context in which Wizkid called him “an influencer” was disrespectful to “everything he has done and is still doing for the Nigerian Music Industry.”
He noted that Don Jazzy is an “absolute legend” who is selfless and has shown support to many entertainers in the country regardless of their status.
