Popular Nigerian singer Michael Adebayo Olayinka professionally known as Ruger is in the news again as he reportedly throws shade at superstar Afroebeats singer Davido in his latest tweet.
In his latest tweets, Ruger shares how he is constantly getting booked. He also criticizes talentless artists for using money to promote their songs and relying on autotune for singing and live performances.
This comes months after Ruger’s close colleague BNXN, formerly known as Buju, stirred controversy by claiming that singer Davido knows nothing about music.
At the initial level, singer Ruger who left Jonzing Record to start his own Record label Blown Boy Entertainment said he get booked so much because he brings his whole fucking personality on stage.
He tweeted; “Let me explain to you why I get booked so much. I don’t come on stage to sing (of which I know l’m so good at) I bring my whole fucking personality on stage it’s not a joke 😉.”
He moved on by saying that some artistes can have millions of hit songs and still be clueless on stage at a 200-capacity venue. He wrote; “It’s not by having hit songs 😂 you can have a million hit songs and still be clueless on stage at a 200 capacity venue.”
This development erupted several speculations online as many started digging out latest video of Davido and Grammy Award-Winner Angelique Kidjo performing on stage and that was just the beginning.
Ruger also went on to throw shade at singers who always use money to hype their songs and those that use autotune on their mic when they perform.
Ruger tweeted; “My fans know me, they know RUGER is the truth. That’s why they’ll always show out when I call. I’m on tour for life baby 😘😘😘.”
“The music scene has been hurting me coz no matter how shit an artist is, once there’s money for hype, Otilo 😂😂.”
“Now, let’s talk about the gaddamn autotunes on the mic when y’all perform 😂😂😂. Next time, tell your engineer to shut it down when you’re about to speak coz you be speaking in Tunez wahalaaaaaa. Well, Ruger don’t need that shit. thank you ❤️.”

@AfrokonnectNG: Facts! 😂 Nothing more awkward than hearing someone’s ‘autotune voice’ during a live performance. A little authenticity goes a long way! Ruger keeps it real without relying on all that extra tuning—just pure, raw talent. Love to see artists who sound as good live as they do in the studio. 🔥.
