His “Lambo” freestyle, a brief yet infectious track, emerged amid controversy allegedly involving Lagos socialite Sophia Egbueje, who claimed the artist promised her a Lamborghini during their relationship—a promise she alleged he failed to fulfil.
Despite the controversy, the freestyle’s catchy chorus and playful energy resonated with fans worldwide, including the French footballers seen in the video.
