You're easier to see when you're in flight. Summary of it all

Freemasonry:
I've come to understand that it's almost normal for the hoi polloi to hate privileged people. I don't really understand the psychology behind that but I know it's unhealthy and silly. Instead of misdirecting such misguided hate on people whose fathers made money why not hate your father who couldn't make it.

Take for instance, a few years ago Paddy Adenuga had published an inspiring article where he shared his struggles in business and how he succeeded, but in a bizarre twist of narrative the haters attacked him and alluded to the fact that his father's money did this and did that.

Shortly after, Dj Cuppy was also bullied online by people who believes she has no business being a dj, let alone a popular one at that. To them it's her affluent background that's doing the trick not her talent.

The same with Davido. No matter what he does, how many awards he wins, or cool tunes he drops, he'll never be good enough for these people who believe he didn't earn his place at the table.

Instead, they revere and respect those they think are from the streets even when these people are nothing short of mediocre. A case in point is the current frosty relationship between Davido and Burna boy, how did it all start? Both of them were chummy until Burna boy made a disparaging remark about Davido's father buying fame for him. This was not only in bad taste but smacks of obvious jealousy. That you struggled to climb up the ladder due to lack does not make you better, or mean that those who have the resources to advance their dreams or careers must suffer like you before their talents can be validated.

And if the eyewitness account in the media is anything to go by, then it’s obvious that this unfortunate incident was all Burna boys doing. He showed up at the club with 6 hired goons and went straight to the VIP section where Davido was sitting to confront him. Although this is yet to be verified but judging from Burna boy’s propensity for violence it is highly probable that is what happened.

It’s time people do away with this wrong notion that privileged kids don’t deserve what they have. No matter how hard they work there’s always someone who thinks that without their money they’d probably not make it that far, but nothing could be farther from the truth. These kids work just as hard as the poor kids, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with using what you have to advance yourself. I mean you can’t hate on these kids just for being rich as if they’re the ones that stopped your father from making money. It’s wrong and it’s in bad taste.

Instead of hating divert that energy into making money so your kids won’t be just like you. Shout out to David. Keep keeping it a 100.

Hello Mr. AUTHOR.
This your article is one sided. Your examples are rather insufficient and inadequate to make such a conclusion about 'the street's ' disposition towards rich kids.
May I pull you down the memory lane, this same industry has had people like Charly Boy, Ikechuckwu, JJC, NAETO C, D Banj, just to mention a few who had a fair background before foray into music nobody came for their neck or had issues with them, look Mr.Author, the game has evolved from just a game for the street to a mega hustle ground for all cadre.However, just like every field of practice, you must show respect and honour those who have been in the game, it's a competition for fame and acceptance which money can buy to an extent, you don't on the basis of that spit on everyone's face. Honour and respect those who have paid their dues in the game through hardworking. Everybody can't just be saying saying same thing about you all the time, you need to check your self, mature and grow.

Not just rich people, but happy people or anyone that looks like he or she is not struggling.



This is not about Davido, but a trend I have observed- online and offline.

Yes, Nigerians are bitter people, they hate it when you are happy.
