Eedris Abdulkareem talks too much, nobody respects him – Timaya

Afrobeats star, Timaya, has claimed that veteran singer Eedris Abdulkareem is not respected within the music industry because he’s a talkative.

Featuring in a recent interview with Naija FM, Lagos, Timaya downplayed the host’s attempt to compare his personality with Abdulkareem’s.

The host: “You and Eedris Abdulkareem are among the artists that people are mostly afraid of picking a fight with.”

Timaya inferred: “I don’t talk like Eedris. I don’t behave like him…. Nobody is afraid of him because he talks too much. He has always been a talkative.
I don’t even want people to be afraid of me. I respect myself so that people will respect me.”

On his relationship with Eedris Abdulkareem, he said, “I have never had any problem with Eedris. It was just a relationship of the boss and apprentice. I don’t even think he knows my name at that time. I only gave him shutout because he was part of my success story. We don’t have any reason to communicate. When I was serving in his band, he didn’t had any reason to build a relationship with me. When people are serving you don’t act like you’re tolerating them, treat them like family because you don’t know tomorrow.”
