Social media activist VeryDarkMan has accused singer Zlatan Ibile of exploiting their public feud to promote his music, alleging that the musician added a verse to an already recorded song to attract attention.
VDM claimed that Zlatan allowed the disagreement to get to him after some of his critics began supporting the singer, suggesting that the controversy was being used to generate publicity for the track.
In a video posted online, VDM alleged that the song had already been recorded before Zlatan edited it to include the controversial verse.
“As a matter of fact, them don do that song before, they edited it back to put that verse so that the thing go blow, which I don’t mind,” he said.
He further claimed that some of his critics encouraged Zlatan to take on the dispute, adding that Davido later joined the situation.
VDM also dismissed Zlatan’s fan base, claiming that the singer had supporters but did not have a strong following that made him take the controversy seriously.
Despite the criticism, he acknowledged Zlatan’s musical talent and said he enjoyed his songs.
“Zlatan is a great artist, I love his songs,” he said.
However, VDM maintained that the Mohbad controversy remained one of the reasons he had a problem with the singer.
“That same Mohbad case make me no like Zlatan,” he added.
