“They Doubted Me, Now Look Where I Am”- Blaqbonez Claps Back At Past Critics

Nigerian rapper Emeka Akumefule, widely known as Blaqbonez, has delivered a powerful message to fellow creatives in the music industry, emphasizing that while not every talent will stand the test of time, he remains confident in his own enduring success.

Renowned for his distinctive style and outspoken personality, Blaqbonez shared insights into his journey and his unwavering belief in his relevance in the industry.

In a recent series of tweets, the rapper revisited a moment from 2017 when an emerging artist, newly signed to Olamide’s YBNL Nation, took a jab at him during a freestyle session. Without mentioning names, Blaqbonez revealed that the artist dismissed his potential, predicting he would never make it in the industry.

Although he refrained from identifying the rapper, fans speculated that he was referring to Limerick, a former YBNL signee.

Blaqbonez expressed disappointment over how quickly the unnamed artist turned against him after securing a record deal, using his name in a freestyle to undermine his talent. However, years later, Blaqbonez has solidified his place in the industry, proving his critics wrong.

Taking to Twitter to reflect on the situation, Blaqbonez wrote, “Because u got a deal before me, you added my name to your freestyles, ‘you no go ever blow like Blaqbonez’, all because Olamide signed you, you thought he was God abi??”

“I pray u see these tweets and reflect on your life, at how quick u were ready to sh*t on people, we were in rap battle groups together for years, but as them sign u, it was time to shit on me, my work ethic & everything cos you saw into the future and knew I was never going to blow up right??”

“No be every kind of talent fit last for years, I know who I am, I will be here for as long as I want to be, the music I make nobody can make it, I have fans that have been there since the very beginning, not the ones wey discover me with ‘Bling’ or all that sh*t, the ones I’m talking about know themselves.”
