2 KINGS 1 BEEF (OLAMIDE VS YUNG6IX) BY @BADDESTDJTIMMY

EXCLUSIVE:
The Reports and evidence I have gathered states that there is bad blood between Olamide (King badoo) and Yung6ix (King of the south). Trouble started when Olamide told yung6ix not to release the hit single BEFORE I GO BROKE because he just released his album – Baddest Guy Ever Liveth. In fact Olamide wanted Yung6ix to wait for at least 4 months before releasing the song because he wanted to promote his BGEL album. Meanwhile in Yung6ix’s camp, he was already on a club tour and his fans where getting impatient for the hit single to drop so it got released after waiting for a while.
Olamide did not take this well so he quickly posted a look alike of Yung6ix on his Instagram page with the caption “B**** don’t kill my vibe”. But before then, sources close to Olamide say that he was angry when Yung6ix tweeted he was “THE BEST RAPPER IN NIGERIA”. Olamide was referring to Yung6ix in “For example Remix” when he said “E ye pariwo lori twitter” // “Won da yin mo ni musihin”// “E so oyinbo bi Drake” // “Kilode ti e mu BET wale”. There is also strong evidence to prove that Yung6ix changed some Verses of the song “Before I Go Broke” after sending the data to Olamide to voice on it. With lines like “Even olamide know say I be Badoo” ,”I am not here to judge u”, “They try to walk in my shoes”. King6ix also cut out a large part of Olamide’s rap and usual ajasa (Listen to the outro before Yung6ix shouted OTEE ON THE BEAT). Now just recently, Yung6ix released his newest video NOTICE(ONE TWEET), he added the BEFORE I GO BROKE Song to the video and he intentionally cut off olamide’s verse.
This is just the beginning of the battle between 2 young, gifted and equally balanced rappers, both are doing all they can to remain relevant in the industry and want to prove they are no push overs. Now while some music lovers and analysts see all this as a publicity stunt, some say it is a show of ego while others believe Olamide is starting to show us his true character. He recently took shots at popular blogger Linda Ikeji for blogging about his girlfriend being pregnant. I personally think he over reacted because she never reported that he was caught with cocaine or was beaten and disgraced at a party which would have been the most annoying.

PHYNO: NO GUTS, NO GLORY. (THE ALBUM REVIEW BY @BADDESTDJTIMMY

TO start with, I listened to the full album up to 20 times and I can proudly say I am not biased with my review of this album and I must confess that the production,concept and delivery of this album is above average but i have some concerns. 
Firstly, 90% of the songs were performed in Igbo language except the artiste he featured that sang in English language. I like Phyno's concept of trying to represent the East(Igbo language), but how many people actually understand the language in Nigeria especially Lagos state where all artiste believe if you can blow here then you are made. Unlike Yoruba language, most people  have an idea of what the artiste is trying to say and it sounds pleasant to the ears like the late Dagrin and King badoo Olamide. If you notice, even 2face Idibia, Timaya and co sing in their native language but they still interprete in English so we can get their point.
Secondly, this is Phyno's first album (if I am correct) and I think he should have done more songs on his own rather than featuring so many artiste on every track because I know he is creative enough to do that. Take a look at his hit track - GHOST MODE, Olamide always take the shine and people believe King badoo murdered the track, even when they are on stage.  
Also, all the songs on the album sound the same, it seems the same producer produced all the songs and it will take someone with attentive ears to really spot out  the difference in this album. I also made sure I played the album  where so many music lovers (which included Dj's, Music producers and Phyno's fans) are and i noticed they got bored after listening to it for less than 10 minutes.
In conclusion, the album is worth buying, downloading and playing in your car. Phyno has to know that he just started his career and he can only improve, work hard and give the people what they want to listen to. Deliver your flow in Igbo language but try to merge English and Pidgin with it so we can hear your punch lines, metaphors and the message you are trying to pass across !!
I RATE THIS ALBUM 3 STARS out of 5 STARS AND IT IS A 6/10 PROJECT.
