Oladips calls out Qdot for revealing his health status at a critical moment.
Rumours about the supposed demise of Oladips, a rising Nigerian rapper, circulated online approximately two weeks ago. Initially confirmed by Oladips himself through his official social media account, subsequent hearsay began to speculate that the rapper had actually orchestrated his death. Shedding light on the situation, Qdot, a fellow artist, was the first to disclose the truth that Oladips was indeed alive. Qdot has come under fire from the rapper for disclosing his medical condition while his family was still uncertain. Fans, who strongly believe he staged his death to generate publicity for his latest album, which coincidentally dropped the day after his supposed demise, have expressed their disappointment with the rapper’s behaviour.
