The discussion was made during an interview on Saturday, August 13
on The Gist which was aired on Hip TV.
He said:
“To a large extent, I think there are a
lot of people abusing the use of social media,
I am sorry. Most of us artistes realizing that
we have I, 2, 3 or 4 million people following
us and you know that when you say
something, a lot of people are going to react.”
“It is like drug; you can’t contain yourself and
start saying some crap. You are like a god
having a lot of followers, whatever you tell
them to do, they do.”
“I am okay with people who go on social
media to rant but I am against those who have
turned it into a church to settle family issues.
Normally, if you have a marital problem, you
call your wife one on one. If you cannot
contain it, you call in the parents. That’s how I
saw it when I was growing up which is the
culture I have embraced.
“In Teebillz situation, the way he spoke on
social media really appeared as though he was
going to commit suicide and said horrible
things to his father.”
“There are so many times that I allow issues
to slide, for instance, I said a joke that
happened to be out of context about Davido;
Davido was really upset. He didn’t come at me,
but I was a little bit shaded with what he said.
I wanted to react but instead, I apologised.
“Personally for me, war should be war, come
and say whatever you want to say to my face.
It is wise for you not to bring out your
personal issues on social media and that’s
what I stand for.
“If it is a clap back at an artiste like yourself,
then it is your choice. Once it gets to family,
let those ones be in your house, let your
Instagram and twitter group be between you,
her father, her mother and herself.”
