'My God will frustrate you all' - Yemi Alade slams Cool FM over airplay snub
The songstress accuses the popular radio station and its sister brand of attempting to frustrate her career.
Nigerian ace singer, songwriter, and performer Yemi Alade has taken to social media to call out renowned Nigerian radio station Cool FM and its sister brand, Clout Africa.
The award-winning powerhouse, who recently earned a Grammy nomination in the Best African Music Performance category for her song 'Tomorrow'—competing with heavyweights like Asake, Chris Brown, Burna Boy, and Tems—shared details of a simmering dispute on Thursday, November 21, 2024.
In a series of tweets, Yemi Alade alleged that both stations have banned her songs from airing for an entire year. The fallout reportedly stems from her inability to attend an event organised by the station. Despite apologizing for the situation, her efforts were allegedly ignored.
