I never saw that tweet but Eedris claims inthe past, Donjazzy tweeted
"If you are a rapper, your father will never be proud of you.’..He is
still angry over that statement and when Punch asked him he said
Donjazzy was lucky he didn't mention his name because he would have
flogged him..lol
" First of all, why didn’t he stay in London for the British government
to give him a record deal? Shebi all of dem stayed in London, while some
of them, like Banky W, went to America? But they all rushed back to
Nigeria because it is here they could make such money. Of course, in
America, they will not get paid $10, 000 for a show. Even some of the
Americans like 50 Cent, the
highest they will get for a show in their country is $50, 000. But they
get paid $500, 000 here. If you could make such money here, you don’t
have the right to stand up and
say as a rapper, your parent will never be proud of you. Fortunately, it
was money from rap music money that I used to build my houses. It was
through rap music that I could venture into other businesses and do my
agricultural project. It was rap money that I used to sponsor other guys
on their trips to Europe.

When Don Jazzy posted that Twitter message, he specifically said: ‘For
example, Mode 9’. He did that because he knew Mode 9 will not do
anything to him. Why didn’t he mention Eedris? I would have sent people
to bring him and get him flogged very well.
But I would have used that to teach him a lesson. Some people may call
it controversy, but I will say controversy loves me. It is important to
address that issue. This guy has allowed everything to get into his head
quickly. He was feeling like Meen, so na Nigeria we dey make all this
money now? The British government wouldn’t have given him that opportunity.
So, it is we that made rap and R&B possible to the extent that you
get paid nicely that you are now insulting. Apology or not, it was
important that I addressed that issue."
Funny enough, I am happy that they called me a thug. At least, I am
an educated thug. People can say whatever they want. Some even say
Eedris is proud. I am proud because hip-hop is proud. But the problem is
that dem no know my secret. Dem no know how I dey take dey survive. I
never come to dem papa house come ask for money before. The money some
of these guys are making in the industry, I am the one that ignited the
revolution for them to make it. I am fine and happy that I am doing very
well. I am a musician, farmer and businessman. I know what I export to
Europe. Germany is my base. I
speak German. I am a businessman. I know where I am coming from. I am
not an idiot. Let them call me anything; I have friends in the
industry, but I am very choosy. 2Face Idibia is my very good friend, Dr. Fresh is my friend and
Terry G is my brother. If I am not friends with you, that mean say we
no dey the same level and I’m not going to force myself. Na Eba I wan
chop, you say make I chop amala. Na by force?
