Popular Nigerian comedian and skit maker, Mr. Macaroni, has responded to Wizkid’s recent shade aimed at veteran producer and music executive, Don Jazzy.
Wizkid had taken to social media to boast about not engaging with artists signed to an “influencer,” which many interpreted as a reference to Don Jazzy.
Mr. Macaroni took to his X handle to express his disapproval of Wizkid’s comment, stating that while Don Jazzy is indeed an influential figure in the entertainment industry, the context in which Wizkid used the term was disrespectful to Don Jazzy’s contributions to the Nigerian music industry.
“Don Jazzy is perhaps the biggest entertainment influencer in Africa,” Mr. Macaroni wrote. “And the beautiful thing is that his influence cuts across music, contents, films, brands, etc. However, we would all be hypocrites to say that the context in which he was called an influencer isn’t disrespectful to everything he has done and is still doing for the Nigerian Music Industry.”
Mr. Macaroni praised Don Jazzy as an “absolute legend” who selflessly supports artists across the industry, regardless of their status.
He wrote:
“Donjazzy is perhaps the biggest Entertainment Influencer in Africa. And the beautiful thing is that his influence cuts across. From music, to contents, films, brands etc.
“However, we would all be hypocrites to say that the context in which he was called an influencer isn’t disrespectful to everything he has done and is still doing for the Nigerian Music Industry.
“An absolute legend. He promotes Music Artistes even outside his record label. Gives free advice and visibility to up and coming artists, shows love to everyone irrespective of their status. I am also a beneficiary of his phenomenal influence!
