Ice Prince, a legendary Nigerian hip hop artist, has finally spoken out in response to Afrobeats singer Wizkid’s remark that “rap is dead.”
The ‘Aboki’ hitmaker stated that, contrary to popular belief, Nigerian rap is alive and well, and that no one should tell him ‘crap’.
Ice Prince mentioned several of his hip hop contemporaries who are keeping the game alive, including Phyno, Blaqbonez, Erigga, Olamide, Zlatan, and Falz.
