Veteran rapper Tobechukwu Ejiofor, known as Illbliss, expressed sadness over the shift of music stars Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy from rap to afrobeats.

In an interview with Radio Now 95.3 FM, Illbliss reminisced about the time when rap was thriving in Nigeria before these artists changed their musical style.

He mentioned that they reached worldwide fame after moving to singing.

He acknowledged that hip-hop isn’t very profitable in Nigeria, pointing out that only a handful of rappers, including himself, have found financial success.

Illbliss said, “We (Hip-Hop community) lost a lot of our soldiers; we lost Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Davido. Three of them were rappers. I guess they found the afrobeats vibe and it made them global stars.

“Hip-hop is a tough sell in Nigeria. Not everybody has been as fortunate as myself or Vector, M.I., Reminisce, Olamide, and Phyno. It’s not a long list.

In other news, BBNaija contestant Wanni has threatened to take action following allegations that her sister Handi was molested by a male housemate while she was asleep.

This information came to light during a discussion with Shaun, where Wanni voiced her dissatisfaction and recounted a similar experience she had endured in the past.

She revealed that, unlike her previous situation where she felt powerless, she is determined to ensure that the individual responsible for her sister’s alleged assault faces severe consequences.

As of the time of this report, there is no confirmation of Handi’s assault, as no video evidence or corroborating proof has been presented to support the allegation.

The information is derived from Wanni’s revelation during her conversation with Shaun.
