Nigerian radio star, Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze has faulted famous singer, BrymO for his statements about his senior colleague, 2face Idibia.
Daddy Freeze in his usual style took to his Instagam page and wrote; “Brymo, in my humble opinion, saying this is wrong… haba.. And the timing too, these people have gone through a lot…”
“I’m not saying you shouldn’t speak your truth, it’s just better to let certain dogs lie, and kicking a man when he is down is also not right.”
For those who don’t know, Ọlawale Ọlọfọrọ a.k.a BrymO recently shocked Nigerians after he took to social media to make some shocking revelations.
He wrote; “In the very recent past, a man falsely accused me of sleeping with his wife… and I’ve waited in ansgt and the words were never taken ba ck still, efforts were consistently made to prove I did it still… and my soul has known no lasting peace ever since.”
“Mr. Innocent Idibia had, at an AFRIMA press conference in 2015/16 or thereabout, walked into the room, sat beside me and elbowed me in a supposed greeting, as much as 4-5 times, repeatedly, while looking away, saying; ‘BrymO, BrymO…’ and we exchanged no other words that day!”
“Now, in 2012 I had the opportunity to tour the US with his company… a most appreciated opportunity, as he was by far my most respected act around… he was my first reference at everything, and boy! Did I look up to him!!!!”
“Fast forward to a few years ago, he approached for a feature… specifically asking me to get on a track with him. I was initially reluctant to consider it, because I still didn’t know why he did what he did at the press conference years before… well, I got persuaded to meet!”
“I had, the week before or so shared the company of his wife, a female friend of theirs and my partner’s, and my partner herself.. and within minutes she, Mrs. Idibia had asked what the future held for my career… a question I considered a sleek attack. My answer was my future!” I proceeded to respond that I’ll be Africa’s finest act alive, and that I’ll reign for a decade.. and I knew I had shot back nicely.”
“Next meet had Mr Idibia himself present, and he made a point of referencing another artiste, who in the past had claimed king at his expense. Letting me know what my fate might be if I kept eyeing ‘his Throne’.. weeks later I saw the other act bowing to him repeatedly on stage!”
“Weeks later I was lured into being hosted by a friend I had just met… and after spending days getting high and philandering, I was asked if I would love to be a part of an organisation, of which I responded ‘well, I might want to, except I do not subscribe to being b*ttered.”
“Minutes later my host said he was walking down to another guest house, where some guys has mssed up and must be pnished.. told me to come but didn’t wait for me.. Well, I was the guy it turned out.. when I arrived at the gate on the street, I was to show id..”
“I tried to, truly, forcefully open the gate, stating that I was a guest of the hotel and didn’t need id.. Four boys b*rsted through the gates and launched an offense at me.. I fought back of course .. got a black eye too.”
“Later I found out from an undisclosed source that Mr. Idibia was responsible for the att*ck.. Yet I couldn’t decide if it was for supposedly bedding his Mrs. or for claiming the spot of the greatest artiste alive!”
“I would later ask him directly of course.. and he denied flat.. then minutes later said, as the source also mentioned.. that some people said I was saying things about him, and finished by saying people jus talk.. and that the boys who atta*ck me called him ‘egbon’.”
“On that meet with him, my partner had asked me a question I had lied about before, and I had confessed about the girl.. and when asked about still seeing his baby mama, he said he wasn’t seeing her anymore.. and the wife stormed off not believing it. ‘Na Brymo fault’ he said.”
“Up until a few weeks ago, I have found myself being forcefully shoved to take on his life’s image.. to make his mistakes and experience his pains.. Mr. Idibia has truly gone and tinkered with my life for months.. upon months.”
“It may be prudent of him, to desist from interactions with tihngs and people that are close to me, in my domestic spaces and in the field of survival.. I have carried these emotions for many months and won’t rush to this for publicity.. it is not funny.. this is madness.”
“The music scene is a business space, and is not personal playground belonging to an individual or clique. We all came here to make bread.. and each must be allowed to work freely and associate freely too, or not… no one gets to be worshipped for being out longer or being richer.”
“Countless times I have sought the services of other artistes. Be it for a feature on my work or concert and they didn’t respond at all in the DM and even when my manager calls their people say they are unavailable and we move. And I turn people down too. It’s ok!”
