Toni Payne, the ex wife of Nigerian singer, 9ice, has thrown her weight behind her ex man following comedian, actor and rapper Falz’ condemnation of the use of music to celebrate fraud/yahoo yahoo.
Reacting to the trending topic, the poet and filmmaker in the series of tweets, she made reference to American superstars, Future, and 2Pacs kind of song, which talks about sex, violence, drugs, guns and ghetto life..
We all absorb music differently. At the end of the day, the artist can only “create” the masses determine what songs “blow.”

The fact that Beautifully Spoilt, Ojo, Ogara & so many other beautiful songs on d album rnt as big as Living things says a lot consumer wise

She went on to add that everyone is responsible for their actions and music shouldn’t influence you to do what you do not want or should not do.
Y’all can argue all day but while u do, remember, you the listeners chose this song as a fav over so many other beautiful songs on d album.

I listen to Future with his morally bankrupt lyrics.. it’s a CHOICE. I enjoy it. I don’t come and form holy while enjoying my choice..

Iv listened to the ID Cabasa album 1M times. The ONE song people can say has questionable lyrics is what the consumer liked most. GO FIGURE!

Music Artists like most artists, poets inclusive, draw inspiration from their environment. Singing about it doesn’t mean you approve of it.

I listened to 2Pac as young as 13.. of course I knew some of his lyrics were naughty but I enjoyed the sound and still never emulated it

Mask Off by Future is probably one of d biggest songs in 2017. Did you go buy Molly or Percocet after listening to it? No, cos u know better

I choose what influences me, the influence doesn’t choose me!
