The Disrespect Towards Davido: A Concern Raised by Nasty Blaq
In a recent expression of concern, skit maker Nasty Blaq has voiced his discontent regarding the disrespect directed at Afrobeats superstar Davido. Blaq lamented that the level of disrespect the DMW boss is receiving is excessive, asserting that it stems from people taking advantage of the singer’s inherent kindness.
Through a post on his X handle, Nasty Blaq stated, “The disrespect Davido is getting is way too much sha, man just wants to help people and that’s all.” This sentiment reflects a growing frustration within the entertainment community about how public figures, particularly those known for their generosity, are often subjected to undue criticism and mistreatment.
Blaq’s comments come in the wake of controversy involving content creator Korty EO, who recently accused Davido and his team of rescinding permission to post an interview video they had initially approved. Korty expressed her disappointment, stating that she had been instructed to re-edit the footage only to later be told not to share it at all. She emphasized her commitment to authenticity, urging artists to be forthcoming if they do not wish to be portrayed a certain way.
Further complicating the narrative, fellow Afrobeats artist Seun Kuti shared his feelings of exclusion after not receiving an invitation to Davido’s wedding. Kuti described the emotional turmoil he experienced, highlighting the irony of Davido’s past visits to his family’s bar, where he enjoyed complimentary drinks with large groups. Kuti’s candid remarks underscore a sense of betrayal felt by some in the industry, despite the camaraderie that may have existed previously.
These incidents collectively illuminate a troubling trend of disrespect towards artists who, like Davido, strive to uplift others. As conversations around accountability and respect continue, it is crucial for the industry to foster an environment where kindness is met with appreciation rather than exploitation.
Veteran Nollywood actress Genevieve Nnaji recently engaged with a fan’s observation about her appearance on X. Following a post featuring a photograph of the actress, a user commented on her aging, stating, “You really cannot cheat nature. My fine wine is finally growing old.”
Ms. Nnaji’s response demonstrated a remarkably grounded perspective. She replied, “It gets worse, bro. I will get so old I’ll die, if I’m lucky.”
This simple yet profound statement underscores a realistic and mature acceptance of the inevitable aging process. The actress, widely celebrated for her beauty and impactful contributions to Nollywood since 1998, acknowledges mortality with refreshing candor. Her response serves as a reminder that aging is a natural and privileged experience, a perspective often overshadowed in the pursuit of perpetual youth.
Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, known professionally as Odumodublvck, has publicly stated that he refused a substantial monetary offer designed to sway his support against Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, during the 2023 election cycle.
This declaration follows criticism directed at the artist for his perceived entitlement in requesting Mr. Obi to promote his forthcoming album, “The Machine Is Coming,” as a reciprocation for his loyalty.
Odumodublvck defended his request, asserting that he made significant sacrifices to support Mr. Obi’s campaign. In a post on X, he alluded to the magnitude of the offer he rejected, framing his album promotion request as a modest ask in light of his prior commitment. The artist emphasized his unwavering stance and the forthcoming release of his project.
American rapper and model Rubi Rose has publicly stated her financial prerequisites for prospective romantic partners. In a recent livestream with Adin Ross, the artist declared that she requires a potential suitor to earn a minimum of $5 million annually.
Rose justified this stipulation by drawing a parallel to societal expectations regarding female attractiveness, stating that “Men won’t date ugly girls, so I don’t want to date a broke guy.” Further clarifying her position, she added that she desires a partner who is financially comparable to herself and stipulated that his wealth must be derived from legal avenues. Her remarks have predictably ignited considerable discussion regarding financial expectations in modern relationships.
