Popular Nigerian singers, Olamide
and Lil Kesh on Friday addressed report that their new song was promoting
ritual killings and ‘Yahoo’.
The
musicians had come under attack because their new song titled ‘Logo Benz’ had
lyrics like “If money no enter I go do blood money” and Nigerians aren’t
finding it funny at all.
The song which since its release
on Thursday stirred divergent reactions from Nigerians, especially on social
media.
Some Nigerians condemned the
singers for such lyrics said to be encouraging youths to engage in ritual
killings and fraudulent acts for money.
But reacting, Olamide on his
Twitter account denied promoting ‘blood money and yahoo.
The singer said the song was
meant to create awareness about the current state of youths in our society.
He tweeted, ”Logo Benz is for the
3rd party to have a glimpse into the current state of youths in our society.

“I’m not sure if there’s anything
like 2 much awareness, but pardon me if there is. It’s all over the news, it’s
always been in movies, don’t box musicians.”
