Yemi Alade, a Nigerian Afrobeats musician, has responded to a fan who made similarities between her and fellow music icon Tiwa Savage, saying she’s superior to her.
The two singers are Nigeria’s most well-known feminine music superstars.
Despite their success, there was discuss of a rivalry, not less than amongst their fan communities.
In response, Yemi Alade appeared to downplay any concept of a bitter rivalry when she warned a passionate supporter on platform X (beforehand Twitter) to not disparage her Nigerian competitor.
The scenario began when the self-described Mama Africa uploaded a video clip with the assertion,
“Africa, our time is NOW!!” She was scheduled to play on the opening ceremony of the 2023 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Côte d’Ivoire.
In response to a fan with the username @ThatNigerianlad touch upon the publish with a derogatory comment aimed toward Tiwa Savage, stating,
“U better than tiwa.”
The X person’s remark was rapidly disregarded by Yemi Alade, who claimed,
“Comparison is the thief of Joy. We’re both winning…. celebrate and support us all.”
