Ace Afrobeats singer and songwriter, Damini Ogulu aka, Burna Boy has slammed colleague and veteran rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem, over his comment about him in a yet-to-be-released podcast.

Abdulkareem, in a now-viral clip of a teaser of the upcoming edition of ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast which surfaced on X on Saturday, lambasted Burna Boy for claiming no Nigerian artiste helped him while coming up.

Reacting to his comment, Burna Boy, in a now-deleted post shared via his verified X handle, said he did not blame Abdulkareem for his comment but the people who donated money to settle his hospital bills when he underwent a kidney transplant in 2022.

The ‘Last Last’ crooner, who is currently in the Bahamas for a show, went on to aim a dig at Abdulkareem, saying he is not in his league.

He tweeted in Pidgin: “Abdul Kareem abi wettin dem dey call your papa, I no blame you. I blame people wey donate money for your hospital bills. And I wish say you be person wey fit dey enter the kind places wey I dey, make we use mistake jam.”
