Nigerian singer, Eedris Abdulkareem had written an essay to his junior colleague, Burna Boy for wishing him dead.
In a post on his Instagram page, he expressed how saddened and disappointing it is for the Grammy singer to be wishing anyone dead. He stated that making fun of his health crisis and blaming people who helped to keep him alive is very shameful.
He added that threatening his life is a different ball game, but for him to act as God is the most nauseating foul prank of all time.
Eedris made it known that he would reply Burna Boy through the medium he knows best, which is music as he teased a song about him.
“ESSAY TO BURNA BOY” FOR WISHING ME DEAD
Wishing me or any other person dead is truly saddening and very disappointing.
Making fun of my health crisis and blaming people who helped to keep me alive is very shameful.
Threatening my life is a different ball game, but for you to play God? That’s the most nauseating foul prank of all time.
Now, conscientious Nigerians and the general public are weighing into the matter and you instantly deleted your demonic prayers for me.
I’ll reply through the only medium that I have…and that is music; so I will be dropping my heartfelt response via a single aptly named “Essay to Burn Boy” in a fortnight.
Stay tuned for that because
“No man be GOD”.
Kemi Filani reported that Eedris had spoken out about the music industry and Burna Boy, in an excerpt from an unpublished edition of the famous podcast The Honest Bunch.
The singer had slammed Burna Boy over a statement he made years back, claiming that none of his senior colleagues had prepared him for success.
According to Burna, no one in the Nigerian music business has ever done anything for him since musicians were too busy doing things for themselves or criticizing others’ achievements.
Replying him, Eedris described his statement as a stup!d talk and Burna Boy had slammed him, stating that he blamed the people who donated money for his hospital bills last year, as he added that he wished the singer was someone who could enter the kind of places, he enters so they can meet.
Replying him in a now-deleted post on his Instagram story, Eedris agreed that the money contributed by Nigerians helped save his life, but he doubts any contribution can save Burna Boy’s sperm from reproducing.
Recall that in June 2022, Eedris was diagnosed with kidney failure and needed a kidney transplant to help save his life.
Singer, MI Abaga revealed that the singer’s wife had volunteered to donate one of her kidneys to him.
This isn’t the first time, Eedris has attacked Burna Boy. In 2020, Eedris slammed Burna Boy as he praised Davido as the real Odogwu of his generation of singers.
This came after Burna Boy and Davido clashed online following an interview Davido did saying he and Wizkid are Nigeria’s greatest of all time.
Burna Boy felt sidelined from the equation which forced him to shade Davido, reminding him that he only succeeded musically because his billionaire father bought it all for him.
Eedris Abdulkareem had joined the frenzy by stripping Burna Boy off the Odogwu title and pasting it on Davido.
