Nigerian singer, Bella Shmurda has emphasized the need for artists to respect, rather than denigrating the afrobeat genre.
The singer expressed his disappointment at recent comments from artists like Wizkid and Burna Boy, disrespecting the afrobeat genre.
He prevented himself from commenting on it because he was avoiding to have enemies in the industry.
In Bella’s opinion, artists should respect and not downgrade the genre since it is theirs, no matter the level these artists attain in their respective careers.
