It is one thing to be disrespected by a total stranger and another to be disrespected by an industry personality who ought to know better and treat you with the respect you deserve.
Well, Nigeria’s Burna Boy is on a ‘blocking’ spree on Twitter (perhaps needs the ‘blocks’ to build a new apartment in Lekki in his home country) as Ghanaian music lovers register their dislike for his unprofessional attitude at stealing DJ Vision and A.I’s 2016 hit single Grind.
Burna Boy’s announcement of the release of a “Re Up” of the song called Chilling Chillin did not go well with A.I who registered his displeasure about it via Twitter.
Tf is 'chilling chilling' ? Lol. Word?

I don't have shit to do with that 'chilling chillin' shit though so, ya! It's not a re-up. I don't know what he's talking about.

I hear my voice on the hook and all but still, the only 'Grind' we recognize starts with…'aiyo Vis…' y'all already know. #still2li✌🏾

It was never about the hype. Mfs worked hard to keep breathing. This is all sweat, blood and tears. Niggas jus ain't gon do their…

…little versions and call it no fucking re-up. This is real life. I'll check that anytime regardless who you are. Respect us! #still2li✌🏾

This seems not have settled well with the Nigerian who in-turn blocked the Ghanaian for standing up for his intellectual property.
Still balling. #still2li✌🏾 pic.twitter.com/ptX0DOn2QE

A.I is not alone in this regard as the Nigerian musician also blocked award me and other industry personalities for speaking out on the issue.
So @burnaboy had the freaking gut to block @ai2ligit after the latter registered his dislike for how the CHILLING CHILLIN went? U a mess

Of course, @burnaboy blocked me as well for talking the f*ckery off his head. You don't treat another musician's work like that.

Since then, Vision DJ has also stated Burna Boy had no blessing from them for what is supposed to be a Re Up.
Pls everybody asking, nigga has received no blessings or backing from me, @ai2ligit or our team.thank you
