Winner of the Big Brother Naija ‘Shine Ya Eye’ edition cum singer, Hazel Oyeze, popularly known as Whitemoney, has made a bold claim about his colleague, Shallipopi.
Naija News reports that the reality TV star, during an Instagram live session with his fans, asserted that Shallipopi lacks a good voice.
Boasting about his musical prowess, Whitemoney said he is more exposed than Shallipopi in all ramifications in the music industry.
He said, “Shallipopi doesn’t have a wonderful voice…Musically I’m more exposed than him. In every angle for entertainment, I am more than him.”
Shallipopi has yet to react to Whitemoney’s claims.
‘Nigerians Will Regret Not Supporting My Music’
Meanwhile, Whitemoney has said Nigerians will regret not supporting his music career when he eventually becomes accepted internationally.
Naija News reports that the reality TV star cum singer made this known in a recent interview with Echoo Room.
According to Whitemoney, Grammy award-winning singer, Burna Boy, faced a similar fate, and when he became successful, Nigerians tagged him ‘proud’ for not being affordable to Nigerian show promoters.
The singer vowed Nigerian show promoters would also regret not supporting him once he becomes successful globally.
He said, “Nigerian promoters did the same thing they are doing to me to Burna Boy and Davido. They don’t believe in their sounds but when the outsiders [foreigners] are appreciating you, they [Nigerians] would be forced to now believe in you and they will pay times two.
“Nigerian promoters will regret not supporting my music. Your only prayer should be that I shouldn’t make it in this music industry because if I make it, you all will pay.”
