Nigerian billionaire blogger and media entrepreneur, Linda Ikeji has refuted a report crowning American rapper, Drake as the second greatest musician of all times.
A foreign publication had described the American rapper as the greatest artist after late Michael Jackson.
The site wrote,
“After Michael Jackson, Drake is the greatest musician to ever grace the mic”.
Disputing it, Linda Ikeji stated that the rapper and father of one isn’t among her top 10.
Making her own list, she crowned Beyonce as the second greatest artist after MJ.
Linda went on to list her favorite singers, which includes, Whitney Houston, Lionel Richie, Usher, R Kelly and Rihanna.
For her, these aforementioned artists are better than Drake.
“I don’t agree! Beyonce next. Then R Kelly. Then Whitney Houston. The. Lionel Richie. Then Usher. Drake is not even in my top 10. Rihanna is even a greater artist..”.
Linda reacts to Will Smith and Chris Rock Oscars scandal
Sometime in March, during the Will Smith and Chris Rock scandal, Linda Ikeji had slammed the actor.
Kemi Filani news reported that Will Smith gave the world something controversial to talk about when he attacked comedian, Chris Rock on stage for joking about his wife’s health condition.
Jada who suffers from alopecia had to cut off her hairs and Chris Rock decided to make fun of it.
To protect and defend his wife, Will Smith slapped the comedian on stage and this has elicited mixed reactions from many.
Weighing in, Linda Ikeji agreed with many, that the actors action was uncalled for and beneath him.
She noted how the actor was always carrying himself with grace and at such, his unthoughtful action had tainted his image.
Linda Ikeji slams Will Smith
What was supposed to be the best night of his career became a disaster with his action.
“I personally think Will Smith should not have slapped Chris Rock. Will carries himself with grace so this was beneath him. It also wasn’t the time or place. After nearly four decades in entertainment, this was his big night, now completely overshadowed by his behavior….which should never be tolerated (I hope the Oscars do something about it).
Now imagine if Chris Rock decides to file charges Will Smith will be arrested possibly handcuffed, TMZ will be there to capture the images and videos. There will be a mugshot, going to trial for months and maybe do community service if not jail time.
All of this will impact on all his achievements and accomplishments. This is what people will remember more than anything else. I love Will but this behavior isn’t okay. And like he rightfully said, it’s at your highest points that the devil will try it. Don’t let the devil win. I hope God heals everyone involved”.
