“You Will End Up Like Your Father”- Iyanya Knocks Social Media Critics Who Compared Him to Wizkid and Samklef

Musician Iyanya replies a social media troll who disparages his musical abilities while explaining why Wizkid is despised in the music industry.

In a recent social media conversation, Iyanya was offended when a troll likened his career path to that of Wizkid.

The user @Xperience_Snr reposted a statement from @itzbasito thanking Wizkid for exceeding expectations and establishing an industry standard.

“Wizkid’s only crime is surpassing the benchmark set for him and becoming the benchmark himself” he tweeted.

Reposting it, @Xperience_Snr noted that Wizkid was expected to follow in the footsteps of Iyanya and Samklef, meaning that their careers had fallen short of expectations.

“Same reason why Drake gets a lot of hate. The whole entertainment industry didn’t expect that little tiny white boy to get that far, Wizkid was supposed to end up like Samklef and Iyanya” the other user added.

Iyanya however, took strong exception to this comparison, responding with a scathing tweet that wished the user a fate similar to his father’s.

“You will end up like your father” Iyanya fumed.
