Nigerian rap star Phyno delivered a sharp reply to an X user who suggested that both he and fellow artist Olamide should retire from the music scene. The comment was made after Phyno teased his upcoming album, set to release at midnight.
The X user criticized Phyno and Olamide, claiming they had lost their relevance in the music industry. He went on to ask, “Who still listens to them in 2024?”
“Unrelated, but Phyno and Olamide need to wrap this up. They don’t have the juice anymore. Who still listens to these guys in 2024?” the user wrote.
Phyno, known for his sharp comebacks, responded in his native language, calling the user “Akpa amu gi there,” a crude phrase that translates to “your father’s scrotum.”
Fans quickly rallied in support of Phyno, with many praising his response. One user wrote, “Phyno and Olamide will always be legends,” while another commented, “I still listen to them in 2024.”
In a related story, Phyno recently opened up about his early struggles in the music industry. He revealed that at one point, he was encouraged to join a cult to advance his career. However, Phyno advised aspiring artists to stay true to themselves and focus on hard work rather than shortcuts, which he credited for his own success.
