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”
