Yemi Alade speaks on alleged competition with Tiwa Savage
Nigerian music star, Yemi Alade, has said that she still finds it difficult to understand why the public pitches Tiwa Savage and herself against each other.
The ‘Johnny’ crooner, had in an earlier interview rated herself equal to Tiwa Savage, Wizkid, Davido, Olamide and other A’list music acts.
In an interview with ShowTime TV, Miss Alade also rubbished claims that Tiwa had penetrated the African music scene more than she has.
She said, “Whatever makes them sleep well at night. I’ll never comprehend why the public likes to pitch successful people against one another, we are all winning, and that’s what is important. But like I said, whatever makes them sleep well at night.
“Every female in the Nigerian music industry is doing great and I’m glad for the chance and opportunity to take our music places”, she noted.
On why she has surprisingly steered clear of messy scandals and controversies in the industry, she added, “I know who I’m, where I come from and I surround myself with amazing people.”
