Comedian, Speed Darlington compares self with Tems

Speed Darlington, a notorious comedian and musician from Nigeria, has openly disparaged Grammy Award winner Tems.

He highlighted his position as the finest through his Instagram account in an outburst and disparaged the new generation of maestros by asserting that he rose to fame when there were no streaming services.

He continued by stating that Tems had not, in any way, exceeded him so far despite Tems’ long time in the game.

He stated, in his own words:

“All this name wey you just mention, nobody know them when I dey enter this thing. Tems, yoruba girl, na yesterday she come. I launched akpi music in 2010. When I dey drop music, Instagram no dey. They should come and worship me.” 

His point of view wasn’t well received by concerned citizens, who fiercely criticized him on all social media sites.
