Following MI Abaga’s condemnation of rappers who have switched from rapping to singing , Nigerian rapper, Ice Prince has said that he will not stop singing despite MI’s scathing criticism.
In an attempt to attain mainstream acclaim and commercial success, rappers have been condemned heavily by hip-hop enthusiasts.
MI’s song, ‘You Rappers Should Fix Up Your Lives’ has generated debate among rappers and hip-hop fans.
When Ice Prince was recently asked about his style of music, he said: “I experiment a lot. I am the kind of artiste that will rap today, sing tomorrow.So yeah, I experiment a lot. I’ve been experimenting for a while, I don’t think I will stop experimenting.”
Speaking on why he made a biopic, the Jos born entertainer said ‘Me vs Me’ was originally a song on his ‘Jos To The World’ album, but when Gbenro Ajibade heard it, he advised him to make a movie out of it.
“The movie is from a song on my last album called ‘Me Vs Me’. Gbenro Ajibade heard the song and said ‘Ice this is not a song, you need to make a movie out of it’. That’s how ‘Me Vs Me’ was birthed,” he said.
Reacting to his decline in the music scene, Ice Prince insists that he is a success.
“I am so successful. Listen, I am so successful. As I’m talking about it now, I’m actually thinking of it in my head. I am very successful I have seen so much in my life.I have been through a lot. To still be alive and still be able to breathe is success.”
