Few weeks after popular rapper, Phyno made headlines when Malaysian-based Nigerian big boy, Ray Hushpuppi attacked him and Ice Prince, and accused them of wearing Fake Patek wristwatches, Phyno is still speaking on the Hushpuppi drama. Phyno seems to still have a few words to say and he made this known in a recent chat with the Punch. Phyno slams ‘childish’ Hushpuppi again.
Recall the ugly drama? It all started after Hushpuppi called out the duo on social media. He wrote: “If you don’t want people to patronise pirated copy (sic) of your work, don’t patronise pirated copy of other people’s work #Hypocrites.” Read it up HERE.

But Phyno, who is usually not quick to responding to trolls, took to his Snapchat account to reply. In a series of posts, the Igbo rapper wrote, “We are not on the same level. You live and die for Gucci. I will live and die for my people. The hunger is different here man…I’ve got cribs, live in my house, yet never posted it. Bought a house for my mum; never posted it. Got her a car on her birthday last two years; never posted it. Ibu onye ala, salesman,” Phyno blasted.
However, while the dust raised by the drama is yet to settle, the rapper has said he has put the episode behind him.
“It is very childish to brag about what I have. I care more about touching lives in positive ways. It is not really about how much you have in your bank account but how many people’s lives you have made better. The good thing is that I have a track record and people know what I do.

“So it doesn’t really make sense for me to be exchanging words with someone who just came from nowhere and has no credibility whatsoever.”
Phyno, speaking further, shed more light on his background, saying: “I am happy for how far I have come. My father never wanted me to become an artiste because he felt it wasn’t a good profession. But I decided to stick to my guns and I have proved that one can also have a good life with music. Now, people call on me to mentor their children and that couldn’t have happened years ago. Nigerian music has gone global and the future looks even brighter,” he added.
