“You Will Never Sell Out Any Venue In 1 Minute Till You Die” – Wizkid’s Personal Assistant Blasts Yemi Alade
A personal assistant to Nigerian pop star Wzkid has blast Nigerian female singer Yemi Alade that she will never sell out any venue in her lifetime.
Earlier we reported that Afrobeats star Wizkid had sold out tickets to his upcoming concert in France under 1 minute.
Amidst celebration of the singer’s achievement online, one of his assistants by the name of Godson took to his Instagram page to ridicule female Nigerian artiste Yemi Alade.
On his IG, Godson wrote that Yemi Alade could never sell out tickets in any French venue in the same amount of time Wizkid sold his, one minute.
“Yemi Alade with your French and Francophone songs, you will still never be able to sell out any French Arena like Wizkid in 1minute,” Godson wrote.
What could have led Godson to post such a thing on social media is best known to him. However, we can make a guess on the reason for his action.
On Sunday (April 3) Wizkid lost a Grammy award (Best Global Music Album) to Angélique Kidjo, a 64-year-old Beninese legendary singer. Although it wasn’t the only award Wizkid lost on that night, fans of the singer criticized Angélique Kidjo’s album, Mother Nature, which had won her the prestigious award ahead of Wizkid’s Made In Lagos, a double platinum-certified album.
On Twitter, Yemi Alade, who was featured on a song titled Dignity off Mother Nature, retweeted a post in which a fan of Angélique Kidjo’s music had slammed people discrediting her album. The fan wrote, in reaction to people thinking Wizkid ought to have won the award instead, this on Twitter:
Maybe Godson got irritated with Yemi Alade’s retweeting the post and saw Wizkid’s recent sold out concert in France as the best thing to use in getting back at her.
Whatever it is, we hope they resolve their misunderstanding soon.
