Abaga likewise proclaimed that 2022 has been an extraordinary year for rappers.
When I speak authoritatively about hip hop, it upsets people. I’m MI, and I won’t suffer because of this game or where he is now. It is undeniable. So when I speak, I speak with experience and the weight of my contributions,” he said in a dialect that was a cross between pidgin and English.
“This is an incredible year for the rap kind and that it’s significant. We have been criticized ever since I entered the rap genre. I entered rap after receiving criticism, and people ask me why I did that.
“In life, you will have to attempt difficult things. There are times when you have to act against the green. We adore hip hop despite the fact that people will oppose it. We are still here because we know it goes against the green.
