Babatunde Olusegun a.k.a mode 9 went all emotional on hotfm’s breakfast
radio show with TuTu Adeoba and Cheezy Charles on his type of
non-commercial rap, he re-affirms that he can never change his type of
rap to suit an audience and decries neglect on his type of rap’
‘I
put out a whole album nobody cared’ ‘A whole 20 track album
‘alphabetical order’ nobody gave a f**k’, nobody cares. You see how the
industry is’ how do you expect me to feel? ‘Nigerians don’t like hip hop they only follow the hype, they don’t even know what it is’
I
only cater for my real fans; I don’t really care about the fair
weather, band wagon jumpers ‘I cater for my fans and they are feeling
it’ i have put up too much effort in promotion of my materials’
“It’s
just some certain people in their minds feeling that I’m not doing
well’ I have decided I am going to attack anybody who calls me up and
asks ‘where have you been?’ I have attacked everyone that has done that,
I am not afraid of anybody. It’s just the way they think. If your music
is not playing in clubs then you are not putting out the best. My music
is not club music; I didn’t put out a club album. Real fans of Mode 9
know where it’s happening and know how to get it. They’ve seen it on TV
and they loved it. So I think I’m doing a great job. Imagine you doing
all this and someone walking up to you and asking, common where’ve you
been? Imagine how bad you’ll feel after spending millions of naira to
promote yourself from your own pocket.
He also cleared the air about the purported biff with Vector concerning
controversial single ‘the truth’ released in July allegedly by Vector
which was widely reported as a diss track targeting mode 9.
Mode said
“I don’t have any biff with Vector. Vector was even on my album. The
night that song was released, Vector called me and said someone was
trying to sabotage him. He said the song was recorded in 2009 but
whoever pushed it out in July had some part doctored. Since Vector
called me before the song started making the waves I believed him. I
even tweeted that I’m cool with Vector. We both tweeted that we are cool
with each other. But people still went on to blow the story; begging
for a war; I’m sorry but we won’t be given anybody a war”
