alade

Nigerian singer, Yemi Alade is not having a great time and has thus let all hell loose on critics in the Nigerian music industry.

The ‘Johnny’ crooner noted that the so called critics lack in-depth knowledge of her critics and would not be as thorough in analysing and criticizing lyrics from male artistes in the industry.

In a Snapchat video by the actress, she said: “I don tire for all this self-acclaimed critics in this Nigeria. They don’t do any form of research, they don’t listen to the artistes’ songs, then they just say sh-t.

“I’m sorry for some people that call themselves critics oh. Hmmm, I’m smiling to the bank, you’re not. Be there questioning my lyrics but you would not question the lyrics of the boys.

“I’m upset about this kind of thing, I just really think that people don’t know when they’re actually being biased gender wise. They don’t know when they’re trying to pick on females.

Enough is enough, y’all just shut up! You’re going to really be checking people’s lyrics and you’re going to be a so-called critic as you call yourself then please make sure you check the guys’ lyrics too. Don’t be on no female’s case, who are you?!”

  3. Nigerians!!! What is wrong with us??yemi alade is a good singer,even she is not…..you shouldn’t criticize cu’s you can’t do what she does, oh yes…you can’t, such words from her is meant for some busy bodies we have in this country….she just told you guys that she is smiling to banks why others are there trying to bring her career down…….I bet most of you her can’t be like her even in your next world!!!!!!

  4. It’s ur money and not ours, if u like cry to the bank…ur lyrics are not edifying the society daz y dey die in a year or few while good lyrics are still being referred to!

  5. Funny thing is without the fans you are nothing…you’re smiling to the bank because of the fans abi na goat dey listen to your music…they have the right to demand something better,you’re in the music business because of them,stop talking like you got no sense.

  6. Music is not a career dat stay long after 5yrs to come now i imagine who will know whether u exist. Most expecially dose u produce meaningless music like u, many musician has came nd gone.

  7. If we don’t criticize ur music or lyrics Dat means we don’t love you. We only do that for you to sit up.. And remember without your fans… YOUR nothing.. Pls be reasonable..

  8. If you are not a gud entertainer,you should consider your fans first before your words,if de fans thoughly becomes dumb will you listen to your songs alone,as an entertainer You should know very well by now dat not all will like your songs,you are not de first settingly will won’t be de last,all de best gal I like your style

  9. My friend shut up, who cares if your weeping to the bank, your lyrics suck. If you’re not looking for johnny, you’re looking for who will buy you Ferrari. And you call that lyrics, of course you’ll get cash from your career no one is denying that. All I know is that ur lyrics are so fucking poor, go work on yourself and stop insulting your fans. Thank goodness I ain’t one of them

  10. U are not suppose to call ur fans dumb,cos without dem der won’t be u!u are suppose to work harder on improving ur music/lyrics.u are suppose to create an avenue whereby u can research to know what ur audience want,d flops in ur music, den try to improve,and not to be bragging… No wori,by d time all d dumb fans stop patronising u,we wil see if u wil still be smiling to d bank or smiling to d street/bush.

  11. Tell them ooo…they mustn’t like your kind of music… What matters most is that your talent and style has brought you this far where many of those who are insulting your songs haven’t reached…ride on my sister… D lord is your muscle

  12. She isn’t insulting her FANS but her CRITICS!!! There’s a difference between those bold lettered words!!!Nigerians go to school!!!…she’s the 4th best vocalist in Nigeria and she’ll keep smiling to the bank because many other African countries love her even more than Nigerians. And she’s got meaningful songs I don’t know why people are just hating.hating doesn’t stop her from being Africa’s best for now.

  13. You suck!!! If called to perform on stage,which of your dumb singles will you perform? Johnny or stupid Ferrari that you lost track on along the line? Look at how you disgraced yourself at AMVCA earlier this year by combining Shit Ferrari and dumb Johnny.Flavour took the stage from you with his Sexey Rosey and you saw the reactions of the fans.That’s what we called ”Giving to them what they paid for”. Gosh!!! I hate your singles.If you want your career to last a bit more,avoid Selebobo like a plague cos you both re sinking together.

  14. They revile your name and your music because you’re somebody in the society. Had it been you’re nobody they won’t criticise you. You need to have this at the back of your mind. Continue to do your thing.

  15. If I was the presenter when you were saying this rubbish I’ll give you a dirty slap we are the fans who listen to your songs we have right to demand for we want…not that “buy me ferarri” shit you are singing… mugu. House for banana island olodo…

  16. Nigeria is a country were talent is not appreciated, that have always known,criticizing Wat u can’t even do wen given d opportunity is baseless. but d fact still remains that weda u kill her carrier or not she’ll never run to any of u for help, she’s already made.

  17. Its only in Nigeria that person manage music . I particularly watch ur music cos it among the selection of different music artist and urs happens to be among them by mistake.

  18. U ar smilling to the bank buh i tell u sometin most people who listen or dance to ur music are far richer than u buh d funny tin is dat u go to the bank after evwi show while d pipu u say are dumb go to d bank evwiday

  19. Point of correction, they are not dumb. Everybody have his/her choice in life…. if you think everybody will like what you do then you are the dumb here not those that dislike your music. Concerning smiling to the bank, I think everybody have their own means of smiling to the bank also. Besides, you are not feeding anybody but yourself and your family. Next time think before you come on air to vomit this type of nonsense ok.

  22. Point of correction, you should be thanking God for where you are today, instead of blasting, dnt also forget that without ur fans you won’t be able to stand dis beautiful today” and am very sure no one will want to purchase a Cd plate and will” say because yemisi alade is de I won’t get dis Cd. It doesn’t make sense to abuse at all. As for me I like ur songs a lot and I also dance to ur steps too. #prayForAllYourFansIncludingTheHaters. And God will continue to bless and lift u up.
