Nigerian music star Olamide faces unexpected backlash after DJ Chicken claimed the rapper did not gift him the widely reported N8 million during a recent encounter.
A now-viral clip shows DJ Chicken angrily cursing out critics while insisting the cash gift was exaggerated.
The controversy started when fans celebrated Olamide’s alleged generosity after photos surfaced of him with DJ Chicken.
However, the hype turned chaotic when DJ Chicken denied receiving N8M, shouting: “Olamide no give me that money! Stop lying!” in a profanity-laden rant.
Olamide, known for supporting upcoming artists, has yet to comment. His past gifts to proteges like Fireboy DML and Asake fuel skepticism about DJ Chicken’s claims.
Netizens have different ideas for possible misunderstandings:
- Cash vs. Promo Support: Olamide may have offered career help, not direct cash
- Third-Party Hype: Fans or bloggers could have inflated the amount
- Misinterpreted Gesture: Might have been a smaller token gift
DJ Chicken later backtracked slightly, saying: “I appreciate Olamide, but the amount was wrong.” However, the damage was done, fans are now dissecting every frame of their interaction.
