Why I want to work with only Falz – Eedris Abdulkareem

Veteran rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem has revealed that he would love a music collaboration with popular musician, Folarin Falana also known as Falz.

The Nigerian Hip Hop legend said he wants to work with just the ‘Bop Daddy’ crooner for now because he recognises him as the only conscious new generation artiste.

Eedris Abdulkareem, who disclosed this in a recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast also said he wants to be remembered as someone who stands for the truth.

When co-host, Toun Cole, asked: “How would you love this new generation of artistes to remember you?”

Abdulkareem simply replied: “For the truth that I stand for.”

On which new generation musician he would love to make music with, the rapper said; “I plan to collaborate with any new generation Nigerian artiset that is conscious enough. Yes, Falz.

Falz is the only conscious artiste in this new generation. Who else? If your music is not adding value, no matter how far it goes, I don’t give a damn, because the lifespan is three or four months.

You will have to do another song to replace that one. But when the song is evergreen, it will always be evergreen.”
