Iyanya Goes Gaga After A Twitter User Said He Brought Nothing To The Afrobeats Space (Read Tweets)
He made the argument when a Twitter user mocked him prior to the praises he got from Triple MG boss, Ubi Frabklin .
The music excutive gave a shoutout to Burna Boy, Davido and Wizkid for how they are promoting Afrobeats globally and he mentioned the singer’s name too.
We’ve Nigerian artistes who dropped hits back to back in the past, that doesn’t mean they contributed majorly to Afrobeats internationally.
Iyanya falls under that category.
Him using the first tweet to ratio me for the second is clownery 😂 pic.twitter.com/gdGOveQjuz

The tweep @ManLikeIcey felt it was a joke for Ubi to call on the singer’s name alongside the leading afrobeats singers .
And who are you again? Only a brainless person will try to undermine my contribution to this game till date.
You definitely are clueless. https://t.co/ACUFrr338b— its iyanyaaaaaa💥 (@Iyanya) May 5, 2023
He wrote; “Ubi Franklin gave shout out to Davido, Wizkid, Rema and Burna Boy for what they’re doing to Afrobeats internationally and he mentioned Iyanya too.”
However, the post didn’t sit well with the afrobeats singer. So, he posted a tweet to argue and maintain that he is still one of the biggest Singers in the afrobeats space.
He wrote; “And who are you again? Only a brainless person will try to undermine my contribution to this game till date. You definitely are clueless.”
