In an intense outburst, Deeone, a prominent Nigerian artist, has publicly criticized veteran rapper Eedris Abdulkareem. Deeone, who is no stranger to controversy, expressed his disappointment with Abdulkareem, accusing the rapper of prioritizing personal gain over the well-being of the youth. The critique comes on the heels of various public discussions about the role of Nigerian celebrities in advocating for social change.
Deeone emphasized that Abdulkareem, who is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of Nigerian hip-hop, has seemingly lost touch with the struggles of the younger generation. According to Deeone, the veteran rapper’s actions no longer align with the values he once stood for, and his focus appears to be more on his personal interests than on using his platform to inspire and uplift the youth.
This public disagreement highlights the ongoing tension between older and younger generations in the Nigerian music scene, with Deeone firmly taking a stand for what he believes to be the true purpose of an artist—impacting society positively. The clash is expected to spark heated debates on social media, as fans and fellow artists weigh in on the issue.
