Whoever broke the story first is the one blame here.<\/p>\n<p>My take on this is perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Shatta said \u201cMe I no dey see wizkid superstar oo\u201d. Story quoted him as saying \u201cwizkid is not a super star\u201d. Now why wld u wanna do tht\u2026<\/p>\n<p>50cent probably doesn\u2019t necessarily see lil Wayne as a super star cos he probably believes he\u2019s his equal but from where I sit, I do think Wayne is a super star from my perspective. I guarantee u many of Nigerian celebrities don\u2019t even see our Sark as a super star.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t even about supporting ur own. It\u2019s just a classic case of not being star struck by someone\u2019s art or hustle, and that\u2019s no crime.<\/p>\n<p>There u have it.. superstardom is not absolute. it\u2019s relative.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no problem here.. stop inciting a rivalry between us and Nigerians. I respect the Shatta movement and their hustle.
