Musician and entrepreneur KRG the Don has finally stepped into the spotlight to comment on the ongoing feud between fellow artists Otile Brown and Bien.
This drama stemmed from Otile’s remarks praising Bien’s talent, particularly for his recent collaboration with Ohangla star Prince Indah, but quickly escalated into a war of words.
In a bold declaration, Otile Brown claimed that while Bien should focus on his latest hit, he remains at the top of the game without needing to engage in social media theatrics.
“Look at your last hit song and compare it to mine; mine is still a big hit in terms of views. It has remained the best music video in the country for almost a year, and I didn’t need to shake my hips on social media. These hits you are talking about, which ones have 3 million, 5 million views?” Otile declared, emphasizing his point that his success is authentic and not manufactured for online attention.
Amidst this verbal sparring, KRG the Don took the opportunity to weigh in during an interview, critiquing Otile for what he perceives as a lack of support for emerging artists.
“That one is selfish. A selfish individual. How many people has Bien delivered? He has given us stars like Nviiri and Bensoul, collaborating with smaller artists to help them rise. I don’t like someone who uses others to climb the ladder without giving back,” KRG stated firmly.
In a strikingly personal jab, KRG suggested that Otile should consider fatherhood as a way to understand the concept of responsibility more deeply.
This provocative commentary comes as the music industry grapples with issues surrounding collaboration and mutual support among artists, with KRG clearly aligning himself with the notion that successful musicians have a duty to uplift their peers.
As the dust settles on the escalating feud, fans are left to consider not only the opinions of these prominent figures but also the broader implications for the music scene, where collaboration and mutual support can often pave the way for shared success.
