Falz Caution Colleagues Who Are Promoting Fraud With Their Music, 9ice Fires Back

Comic actor and rapper, Falz has advised his colleagues to stop hailing and glorifying fraudsters with their music in a chat with HipTV.

Falz further stated that it was killing the future of Nigerians.
He began his career while in secondary school after forming a group called “The School Boys” with his friend before his professional career as a music artiste began in 2009. Falz shot into limelight after his song titled “Marry Me” (featuring vocals from Poe and Yemi Alade) won him a nomination in the “Best Collaboration of The Year” category at the 2015 Nigeria Entertainment Awards.
He was also nominated in the “Best Rap Act of The Year” and “Best New Act to Watch” categories at the same event. He currently owns an independent record label called Bahd Guys Records.


9ice hits back
9ice has replied the accusation that he promotes fraud, and this is all thanks to the interview Falz granted HipTV yesterday.
In case you missed it, Falz called out artistes he said are endangering the future of the youths through their music, and he cited a line from 9ice’s single ‘Living Things’ to drive his point home.
Falz said:

“You are an entertainer, in a position as a role model to younger ones coming up and in your musical record you are greeting all the yahoo boys, you are greeting all the  fraudsters , calling their name personally, hailing them, wire wire mo fe cha che, all this culture you are making the young ones think it’s cool to do it, it’s not, you are destroying our future. As an entertainer sing about something that can help our life, paint a picture, tell a story, don’t glorify fraudulent behaviour it’s not good.”

The unprecedented interview stirred major reactions. While many Nigerians praised the ‘Soft Work’ rapper for his honesty, others had unkind things to say.
However, 9ice has replied Falz’ accusation and denies that he was promoting fraud in the controversial song ‘Living Things.
He said:

“It’s not about promoting fraud, so to speak. It’s about one who wakes up in the morning needs to go and work and earn a living. It’s not negative, it’s positive. You just have to be in that realm to understand what the song is all about.”
