Great vibes from the British-Nigerian artiste, Skepta. Literally, he's one of my top-10 best rappers of Nigerian descent.
He's one of the top 3 in the UK, anytime anyday... that fella so good

Some British people have expressed anger at his tweet, saying that only people that accept British culture should be allowed to become British subjects.

Some Nigerians have proudly reiterated that he is Nigerian.

Some British people have also said that he has a right to choose where he is from.

Some Nigerians have also said that the only reason that he is proud of Nigeria is because he does not live in Nigeria.

Others have referenced a line from his 2017 hit, Hypycrisy.

In that song he rapped, "I'm a Nigerian Eagle".

The Irish folks (males and females) too have been protesting in large numbers within the last 1 week (while waving the Irish flags) calling for an end to immigration by foreigners. "Irish FIRST." The folks are getting tired of taking in immigrants into their country.

On the other hand, Skepta has got fantastic word rhymes and cadence when he raps.

Indeed, he's got mad cool verbal skills. His unique stage name (Skepta) elevates his brand as well.

This is Reddit worthy. It is a waste of digital space on Nairaland.

Skepta is a British citizen of African heritage, stop famzing him. He lives in Britain and not Nigeria with you op.
He only remember that he is Nigerian because of Afro beat.

When Afro beat was not trending he never associated with Nigeria.

The British guy is right, they are just virtual signalling

A proud Nigerian , not some people that barely travel to another country then start shitting on Nigeria .
Which proud Nigerian

They only associate with Nigeria when they want to benefit.

In the Uk back before Afrobeat, they hate anything Nigeria especially those British born of Nigerian descent

Suddenly,they are a proud Nigerian when Afro beat is all over the place

There's nothing "Yoruba" in that family photo.

Mom and Dad are in full, old school Igbo attire.
The type market women still wear in the villages on an Eke market day.

Love it tho.

You're right .

People generally don't like to associate with demeaning things .

It takes one person to start before others follow suit .
