Veteran rapper Ruggedman has spoken up on his reason for penning an open letter t Blackface.
Recall Blackface had mentioned Ruggedman in an interview he granted where he said the latter had lost focus as he no longer made music to fight for the people.
The interview got to Ruggedman who took to IG to slam Blackface.
Speaking with Saturday Beats on his reason for penning the open letter tp Blackface, Ruggedman said;
“He said that after my hit song, ‘Ehen Ehen,’ there has been nothing from me. Even though the interviewer mentioned that I had other songs that did very well, he said that I had stopped preaching against people copying themselves in the industry. He said I should have continued the trend and I was amazed at the statement. He wants me to keep recycling concepts without evolving because that is what he has been doing and that is why I wrote what I wrote that every opportunity he gets to be in front of a camera, he keeps saying the same thing that they stole his song, ‘African Queen.’ He should go and sing another song. Like I said, I love his album, ‘Ghetto Child’, because he had some social conscious songs on the album.
“To me, calling my name in the interview was not necessary but as he has done so, I decided to answer him and this is the last time I would talk about it. I never had any issues with him; I guess it was the alcohol they gave him there that loosened his tongue and he began to talk anyhow.”
