Tedd Riley and Babyface Break Instagram Live Record
Despite its epic fail, the much-anticipated IG Live battle between executives Tedd Riley and Babyface broke the platform's record with 416,000 live viewers. The record was previously held by Tory Lanez with 350,000 viewers, thanks to his now popular "Quarantine Radio". The " Verzuz" face off was postponed to today (Monday 20) due to sound issues on Tedd Riley's side, which resulted in playbacks and echoes whenever he would perform. Twitter had a field day with an overflow of jokes directed at the two.Tedd Riley lost 50k viewers in the span of 10 minutes over his damn audio pic.twitter.com/5Xzp7ErDb2

Ethic Entertainment Slammed Over "Distasteful" Song
Ethic Entertainment is being called out on social media following their new single "Soko".Netizens allege that some of the stint's lyrics by the Gengetone group promotes pedophilia. This is not the first time Ethic have faced backlash. Late last year, their song "Tarimbo" was temporarily suspended by YouTube for "condoning and promoting rape culture". Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) CEO, Ezekiel Mutua has since said that he is working on having Ethic's channel suspended altogether. "We have gotten in touch with Google who owns YouTube. We want that channel suspended. That video is disgusting. It's promoting child abuse and pedophilia, we cannot condone it," said Mutua in a statement on Sunday. Ethic has since responded to the online uproar saying, "We do not endorse pedophilia. People interpret lyrics however they aim to. If that's what you interpreted it as from listening to the lyrics then you should evaluate yourself". Here are some of the reactions;Are we all going to sit there and let Ethic Entertainment just promote paedophilia like that or what is it that Seska means by "..Nunu yako tight kama katoto kachanga?" in Soko their latest Jam? I really don't find this funny or entertaining at all. ??

Do these perverted producers have children? How does a sane adult try to normalize rape, prostitution or paedophilia in the name of gengetone hits? The video Soko by Ethic is despicable immorality that should be condemned by all right thinking people

Don't normalise being rapists, prostitutes or paedophiles in the name of producing gengetone hits. The song Soko by Ethic Entertainment is good until it gets to "tight kama katoto kachanga." This is sad?. We should not promote such immoral content. Photo | Courtesy pic.twitter.com/4fV3syf5Ll

Davido's Fiancé Recovers from COVID-19. Was it Clout Chasing?
Nigerian singer Davido says his fiancé, Chioma has recovered from coronavirus. Taking to his Twitter, the "Risky" hit maker thanked fans for support and prayers, "Glory be to God .. Chioma has now tested negative twice for Covid19 ... Thank you all for prayers .... We love you .."Chioma had allegedly contracted the virus late last month following their return to Nigeria from London,UK. However, as some fans were happy for the couple, others accused them of clout chasing;Glory be to God .. Chioma has now tested negative twice for Covid19 ... Thank you all for prayers .... We love you ..

Davido is just a petty clout chaser! Chioma was never positive, man just needed to be on the headlines ?. What a petty grown up man!!!

Since Davido doesn't have a hit song so he created a publicity stunt and said chioma has corona just to promote mafa mafa and the song flopped so he was frustrated and he is said she is negative, i am a davido fan but at this point davido should quit music and become a mechanic pic.twitter.com/Zw4qKmmOXr

Some individuals are heartless. All bcoz Davido tweeted Chioma has been tested Negative for Covid19. They started tweeting trash that Chioma was not positive for Covid19 before. Is she the first person to be tested Negative for Covid19? Shame on y'all Haters!
