Afrobeats superstar Ruger is again at loggerheads with fellow star BNXN after the release of BNXN’s sophomore EP ‘Bad Since 97’.
Following the release, BNXN took to Twitter to tweet a celebratory post of his album reaching the number one spot on Nigeria’s Apple Music Album Chart.
In the post, BNXN used the caption “What if I, What if I, What if I…Cook” which is likely a derivation of Ruger’s hit single ‘Girlfriend’.

The post comes as a veiled dig at Ruger with whom he recently had a public spat over his hitmaker status.
It will appear that BNXN’s use of a derivation of Ruger’s lyrics didn’t sit well with the Nigerian Ragga king.
In an unexpected reply, Ruger tweeted “Get a solo hit then talk to me fatty bum bum” in an open attack at BNXN.
Get a solo hit then talk to me fatty bum bum

The swipe follows Ruger’s earlier claim that BNXN doesn’t have a solo hit hence they weren’t on the same level.
BNXN then replied to him that “Man had to body sham? hurt him deeeeep”
Man had to body shame? 😞💀 hurt him deeeeep 😂

I’ve heard Buju’s Bad since 97, but if I’m going to be honest, Ruger’s deluxe ep is way too clear. Ruger’s not appreciated enough honestly.

Buju have been subbing Ruger for days till his EP dropped so Ruger has the right to fire back and baba went straight to the point!!

They’re not immature or irresponsible. They just believe in their music.

This Buju guy is just overhyped because he's moving with Wizkid. He has nothing on Ruger. I'll take Ruger over him anytime, any day. Feature man.

What Buju and Ruger are doing will only add extra spice to Headies Award this year. May the best or the one with the biggest connection/stronghold wins 😂

I genuinely love seeing Ruger and Buju squabble on the internet, I hope it translate into the real world, their music and their all round personalities. This is good for entertainment
