“You are not the custodian of Igbo culture” – Kcee hits back with fury after Flavour’s ‘Copycat’ jab

• KCee and Flavour seem to be clashing in a fiery exchange of words on social media, igniting a heated debate among fans.
• It all started when Flavour appeared to throw subtle shade at KCee, stirring the pot with veiled comments about his music.
• KCee, not one to back down, fired back with a pointed response that left many buzzing

Nigerian singer Kingsley Okonkwo, popularly known as KCee, has erupted in fury on social media after his fellow artist, Chinedu Okoli, famously called Flavour N’abania, appeared to take a jab at him online—a jab that KCee and many others believe was unmistakably aimed his way.

Flavour’s post, which many interpreted as a swipe at KCee, came shortly after the latter announced his latest track, Netfliss, a song that’s drawn comparisons to Flavour’s hit Doings featuring Phyno.

Some listeners have pointed out similarities in style and theme, fueling speculation of brewing rivalry between the two.

Flavour, known for his iconic Igbo Highlife sound, stirred the pot with a simple yet loaded tweet, calling out his fellow artist as a “copycat,” an accusation he didn’t directly aim but that many felt was directed at KCee.

Just two days after Flavour’s cryptic tweet, KCee, refusing to let the insult slide, fired back with a series of bold tweets on his own X page.

In a no-holds-barred response, KCee reminded Flavour that they are not on the same level and warned him to be cautious in picking his battles.

He accused Flavour of trying to monopolize Igbo culture and claimed that his colleague acts like a self-appointed “gatekeeper,” enforcing unwritten rules about who can authentically represent the culture in their music.

KCee didn’t stop there; he made it clear that he’s been in the industry long before Flavour and has no regrets about his music’s direction, emphasized his right to celebrate Igbo heritage through his sound.
