Super producer Samklef is not happy with Wizkid.
Speaking exclusively to LIB Samklef, who produced
Wizkid’s hit single Tease Me and five other songs in
Wizkid’s first album, said the superstar singer has not
only refused to work with him again, he’s also going
about dissing his (Samklef) talent.
“I’m not happy with Wizkid. I like his music, but I
don’t like him as a person anymore. The reason I
don’t like him anymore is, why do you go about
spoiling other people’s business? I never spoiled
your business, never came out to say anything
bad about you for four years. So why would you
go to an OAP and tell the OAP that the reason why
you no longer work with me is because my beat is
amateur. What does that mean? Those amateur
beats was what brought you to limelight, was what
made you meet the same Akon who first dropped
‘Don’t Dull’ on your voice.” Samklef said. Continue
I never downgraded him. I showed him love. I
used to go to his house…but he never came to
mine. He doesn’t know my house. He hasn’t even
seen my son before. It means he doesn’t regard
me as a friend. I wanted to feature him in one of
my songs but this guy kept posting me for years.
That’s not even why I am angry. I am angry
because he’s going about disrespecting my talent.
Saying these things in public. It is annoying.
“I’m doing fine without Wizkid. I don’t want to say I
regret working with him but I’m thanking God that
we are all alive. But ask him, the people you are
going to feature in America, if they were like you,
would you meet them?
“I wish him luck. I don’t regret working with his
talent, I only regret working with his person. His
fame took him away. He forgot where he was
coming from. His person is very disgusting.
There’s something we call the grace of God.
Before Wizkid got to where he is today, somebody
gave him a front line, somebody introduced him.
He didn’t just come from anywhere. Making music
is not just about one person. Banky was there to
give him the front line and others came to help
out. I’m not the only one complaining, other
producers are complaining. I don’t want to call
names but nobody is saying anything good about
Wizkid and you call yourself a superstar when you
keep matching other people down. What is the
star about you? Is it because you are featuring
other foreign artists? You are not the first to do
that, others have done that before so why are you
carried away?
“I don’t want to do anything with Wizkid anymore.
Keep it to yourself, keep your name. I have new
friends and new family. But he can continue
talking. We are listening. I don’t wish him bad. He
says my beat is amateur but watch out for
Samklef.” He said
