Iyanya Blasts Ubi Franklin for Excluding Him from Afrobeat Legends
Iyanya Onoyom Mbuk, known by his stage name, Iyanya has stated that his contribution to the growth of Afrobeats is as noteworthy as that of Wizkid and others.
He made the argument when a Twitter user mocked him with a belittling remark about what Triple MG boss, Ubi Frabklin said.
The music excutive gave a shoutout to Burna Boy, Davido and Wizkid for how they are promoting Afrobeats globally and he mentioned Iyanya too.
The tweep @ManLikeIcey felt it was a joke for Ubi to call Iyanya’s name alongside the leading trio who are international stars.
He wrote; “Ubi Franklin gave shout out to Davido, Wizkid, Rema and Burna Boy for what they’re doing to Afrobeats internationally and he mentioned Iyanya too.”
In reaction, the ‘Kukere’ crooner blaste him and noted that only someone who is brainless will undermine his relevance.
He wrote; “And who are you again? Only a brainless person will try to undermine my contribution to this game till date. You definitely are clueless.”
