Nigerian music star, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy has lambasted veteran music producer, Olumide Ogunade a.k.a ID Cabasa over his comment about new generation artistes disrespecting the old ones.
The singer maintained that he would not have respect for any OGs that does not have impact in his music career and life.
Burna Boy, disclosed this on Instagram live session recently.
He said; “The only OGs who have impacted my life; number one, Timaya, because he is the one who showed me that achieving stardom was possible. I’m going to respect him for the rest of my life.”
“D’banj also supported me back then. He paid for ‘Wan Da Mo’ video. These are two people I don’t joke with. It’s not like nggas don’t have respect; no, nggas have just been through a lot and we only remember the people we saw in the dark times. People like Larry Gaaga. He stood by me back then. So these are people I will respect for the rest of my life.”
“When you’re talking about OGs, as far as I’m concerned, those names are the only ones in addition to 2Face based on musicality and the fact that he did a feature with me when he didn’t have to back in the day.”
“These are OGs to me. Any other person isn’t an OG to me. ID Cabasa, you can meet Olamide, and you can be an OG to him. We’ve all been through stuff differently, and we all see life differently.”
“I can’t forget Wande Coal, too. At a point in time, we were so close.”
For those who don’t know, this is what ID Cabasa said recently in an interview… “The new guys need to respect the OGs. The OGs need to be more honourable. You are not competing against these guys.”
“If you see yourself as a competition to these guys, what you’ve done is that you’ve mortgaged your honour.”
“Music legends should support young artists instead of being too critical of them.”
