    Flog A Stan Today. |ATTW Space Ep. 104

    In this episode of #ATTWSpace, we unpacked the brewing tension between Adekunle Gold and Seyi Vibez after Seyi Vibez fired back at what fans believe was a subtle jab on Adekunle Gold’s “Life of the Faaji,” where the “Fuji Moto” reference sparked a full-blown social media war. From cryptic lyrics to direct insults on X, we broke down how ego, branding, and the struggle for ownership of the modern fuji-inspired sound may be fueling one of Afrobeats’ most unexpected clashes right now.We also got into the internet chaos surrounding Rihanna, Tyla, and Ayra Starr after viral Met Gala moments reignited fan wars across Africa’s pop scene. Was Rihanna really ignoring Tyla? Why did fans drag Ayra Starr into it after Rihanna’s “Who’s Dat Girl” post? And how did a simple red carpet interaction become another exhausting stan-war debate about validation, visibility, and who really represents the new face of African pop globally? We unpacked the nuance behind the timelines, the fan narratives, and why both Tyla and Ayra Starr have repeatedly tried to shut down comparisons between them.Then we wrapped things up with the launch of CREAM Platform 3.0 by D'banj — a move that has artists and creatives talking after claims that musicians can now earn up to ₦70 million from one million downloads on the platform. We explored what this could mean for independent artists, whether CREAM’s direct-to-fan monetization model can genuinely compete with traditional streaming revenue, and why D’banj’s long-running vision for creator empowerment keeps resurfacing in conversations about the future of African music business.00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:47 - Turntables Chart Top 10 00:13:18 - Adekunle Gold VS Seyi Vibez 00:35:26 - What does Burna Boy have to do with this?01:10:12 - Rhiana VS Tyla 01:31:04 - Ayra Starr’s position in this feud01:45:07 - Tyla does not speak up for Ayra Starr02:10:07 - Sarz & BNXN joint project 02:14:25 - New Music: Olamide, Kashcoming, Lojay, Tay Iwar, Emah Onigah 02:27:48 - D’banj launches CREAM 3.002:53:45 - Can DTC work in Nigeria? 02:58:06 - Wala Davies AKA Tec Wins AMVCA03:00:42 - Moral Of The Day Find us wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts or at https://linktr.ee/attwspace Hosted on Acast.
