Did Brymo Shade Burna Boy? Check Out Heated Conversation On Twitter
Brymo has been trending on Twitter throughout today. What happened? The artist, who's known to make bold statements on the perceived greatness of his person and artistry, found an enemy in many Twitter users, who thinks him too boastful and not as great as he says he is.
A heated back and forth has seen Bry reply to many dissenting comments, giving them a gbos for every gbas. Yellow, the artist's latest album, was one which came under a lot of scrutiny, for some lyrics off it, and more.
Brymo maintaining his greatness, has consistently called on his admirable achievements, his success on a less-traveled path. If I'm pressed to give an opinion on this, I'd say that Brymo, with a catalog the stuff of legends, is one of the greater artists of his generation, popular acclaim or not. With his detractors quick to bring up the names of mainstream acts like Wizkid, Davido, and the African Giant, Burna (who the Yellow artist seemed to be subbing in a tweet), it is worth saying to them that not all revolutions are televised.

Any artiste popping elsewhere should go there and get awards... Those who don’t play in a certain league don’t get decorated there... one concert a year in Lagos and you are artiste of the year.. crap!! 70% of your work must be here yearly to qualify for important awards.

Even as more people come for the head of Brymo, his cult of fans have spoken up for the quality of his music.
This Yellow album by Brymo is like a fine wine, it gets better to my ears each time I listen.

if you like drag brymo; his music is good. his voice is therapeutic. his artistry is sublime. he never releases a wrong project.
you can argue all you want but brymo will always remain an enigma and when music stops being for commerce and for art, he will lead the onslaught.
