The hatred is much! Bro, on of the reasons I love Wizkid is because of his private lifestyle. Nigga so private that people always anticipate to even see his face online social media. They call it pride, but I call it personality.

Nigga don't even have time to reply trolls or scandals.

You really think I got time to debate this with you? Go stream his songs on Spotify, and watch your bitterness fade away with no stress. Oh, don't forget to stream Ojuelegba last. It's the national anthem.

Noise is appealing to people (people like you) that don't understand what music is. "Boring" music is getting all the accolades while the noise you love is not even recognised.

Don't die of hatred. It's not worth it.

Joysticks:
Go collect giveaway.Asslicker.

No, I don't need it. You need it more because it's among the reasons y'all hate Machala. He doesn't do giveaway for y'all lazy folks.

MufasaLion:

I've said it countlessly that some of you are unintelligent and couldn't make a conversation without exhibiting the childish side of you. Why alter my post? You definitely a sissy! You are weak!

Well, I'm not suprised. You've got a mentor.
