Nigerian indigenous rapper Chibuzor Azubike Nelson, better known as Phyno, has expressed his indifference towards supremacy battles within the Nigerian music industry. In an exclusive interview with journalists at the listening party for his latest album, ‘Full-Time Job,’ the rapper emphasized his focus on personal growth rather than competition.
Phyno remarked, “I feel like as time passes by, one grows, and I feel like I have grown so much musically. I’m excited for people to hear this piece of me that they haven’t really heard before.” He reiterated that he has never engaged in the discussions surrounding supremacy in the music scene, stating, “I don’t do supremacy battles. I have never been a part of that conversation, and I don’t want to be. I don’t care.”
The rapper underlined the significance of dedication and effort in honing one’s craft, highlighting that his new album is tailored for creatives looking to explore their artistry.
Phyno Issues Warning to Fans Over Comparisons with Olamide
In a related development, Phyno has issued a stern warning to fans who persist in comparing him with fellow rapper Olamide. Over the years, fans have often drawn parallels between the two artists, given their distinct linguistic styles—Phyno primarily raps in Igbo while Olamide raps in Yoruba.
On Friday, an X user with the handle @TheDamiForeign sparked another round of comparison, asking, “When it comes to rap, who’s the GOAT? Phyno versus Olamide.” This prompted an irritated response from Phyno, who said, “Yo!!! Tf is wrong with u guys for God’s sake… stop putting me up against my brother or anybody else for that matter. Do your banter with someone else… na ala adi agba unu. wtf.”
Phyno’s comments reflect his desire to maintain a sense of unity and respect within the industry, emphasizing that collaboration and support among artists are more important than competition. His passionate defense of his relationship with Olamide signifies his commitment to fostering a positive environment in the Nigerian music landscape.
