On the cusp of her electrifying performance at the 2023 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) opening ceremony in Côte d’Ivoire, Yemi Alade exuded both musical prowess and sisterhood.
Sharing a video clip captioned “Africa our time is NOW!!” she sparked joy and anticipation among fans.
However, one individual, lurking under the username @ThatNigerianlad, attempted to disrupt the positive vibes.
Their comment, “U better than tiwa,” aimed to sow discord between Alade and fellow music powerhouse Tiwa Savage.
But Yemi Alade shut down the negativity with grace and wisdom. “Comparison is the thief of Joy,” she wrote, reminding everyone that “we’re both winning…. celebrate and support us all.”
This swift and mature response showcased Alade’s commitment to uplifting fellow artists and fostering a supportive community within the music industry.
Instead of fueling a rivalry, Alade’s words turned the spotlight back onto the celebration of African talent and the just conducted AFCON event.
