November 19, (THEWILL) – Singer, Oludipe Oluwasanmi David aka Spyro has disclosed that a number of people wish him dead. Backing up his claim with evidence, he shared a message he received from an X user after he put up a tribute post to late street pop star, Oladipupo Olabode Oladimeji, popularly referred to as Oladips. The X user told Spyro, “It’s you next!!! Ozuor.” The singer said that he gets such messages all the time but he is not bothered because he believes in the power of God.
“I get a lot of ill messages like this but I ain’t even bothered because he that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the almighty. Some dey try sideline me and some even want me dead. And all for what? Because I aint doing it the popular way or because I no dey……But let me make something clear, I cannot be sidelined and no one can kill me before my time. And I make bold on this why? Because He lives and as long as He lives, dem never born anybody papa #nextrated.”
During the week, Oladips was pronounced ‘dead’ shortly after the artist appeared to have collapsed, surrounded by friends. The ‘late’ rapper had expressed frustration, detailing multiple unsuccessful attempts to reach friehis nd by phone, emphasizing his aversion to being alone at home, particularly because of his condition which was unknown as the time he was pronounced ‘dead’.
However, as condolences continued to pour in, a friend of the late rapper alleged that Oladips is not dead and may likely post an apology video for the ‘stunt’ he allegedly pulled. Moments later, he claimed that he isn’t sure about the status of Oladips.
“I’m not sure if he is dead or alive. When people were posting that he was dead, I couldn’t believe it because I don’t wish him death. It is not possible for Oladips to be dead and that was why I posted that he is alive. He probably might be depressed and going through one or two and may not be fine, because of the pressure of the album he wants to release and other life challenges. But please, let’s disregard any information. I am sorry for any issue or damage I might have caused because people seem to misunderstand my message.
Oladips is a mentor and an inspiration to many young ghetto artistes. I was not chasing clout. I was just wishing him well. How can I use such a situation to chase clout? I was only wishing him well.”
