There has been rumored beef between
Chocolate City’s M.I and Indigenous rapper, Olamide. The whole alleged beef started when Olamide referred to a certain CHAIRMAN in a song off his YBNL album titled OWOTABUA, where he said OGBENI CHAIRMAN, FARABALE KO CALM DOWN.
Rumors however flew that Olamide was
taking a deliberate shot at Mr Chairman,
M.I. He however in a song titled Akpata said he misses DaGrin and that the new kids aren’t doing a thing. In the akpata song M.I said “Omo I miss dagrin the streets they miss him too cause ever since he left we got nothing to listen to…These rappers missed his shoe nobody speaking truth”.
M.I however cleared the air when he spoke with Phenom on a segment of Reloaded magazine’s November Issue where he said
“Look at my history, I have beef with
someone, I mention their names. ‘Akpata’
wasn’t targeted at anyone. A few people
went to town saying it was targeted at
Olamide but it wasn’t. I’m saying that
because a lot of people have implied that
because I said a line about DaGrin, I was
dissing Olamide.
If anyone got the wrong idea,i apologize.The line about DaGrin was more about DaGrin than it was about anyone else.
DaGrin was a hero.He was a real success
story for the streets.He was special, he had an energy that was like nothingelse.
When he died, nothingelse mattered to
entertainers ;he was that special.
I think Olamide is super creative and so is
Reminisce and i think so far they have done great with indigenous rap but DaGrin will stay
in a special place”
