Nigerian singer BNXN, whose real name is Daniel Benson, has become embroiled in a heated exchange with colleague Mayorkun and fan Dotman on X.
The controversy began when Dotman compared the two artists, stating that Mayorkun had sold out more shows single-handedly than BNXN had in his entire career.
Meanwhile, BNXN took exception to this claim, dismissing Mayorkun's achievements as "old glory" and insisting that only 2024's accomplishments should be considered in any comparison between them. Also, he used an insulting Yoruba word to describe Dotman.
However, BNXN's response has been met with criticism from fans online. Fans feel he was disrespectful to Mayorkun, a well-established artist in the industry. Lastly, many have called out BNXN for his handling of the situation, sparking a wider debate about the nature of success and comparison in the music industry.
