Afropop sensation, Ikuforiji Olaitan otherwise known as Oxlade, has cried out that he is currently being blackmailed by senior colleagues in the music industry.
The ‘Ku Lo Sa’ crooner also alleged that he has been black-listed as some influential people are championing the moves for him to be boycotted.
Oxlade lamented about the discovery during a recent freestyle on Glitch Africa, where he added that some of his colleagues who are copying his musical style are backbiting him.
In his words; “Many boys don dey sound like me and still many boys don dey backbite me. Why me? Some gatekeepers don dey boycott me. Some OGs don dey blackmail me.”

Meanwhile, this is coming days after CorrectNG reported that he opened up about the heavy consequences of his private videos getting leaked online.
The ‘Away’ hit-maker revealed that he lost all his endorsement deals worth over N400 million and brands canceled their engagements with him.
It may be recalled that two years ago, Oxlade made headlines when his bedroom video with a lady surfaced on multiple social media platforms.
Oxlade disclosed that he was being blackmailed with the video before it got leaked. He explained that he felt relieved when the videos finally hit social media because he was tired of the blackmailer using it to extort money from him.
The 26-year-old singer, however, admitted that the scandal affected his family and his mental health as well as his brand and he had to go for 3-month rehabilitation in the United Kingdom.
Oxlade also said that despite the personal relief, what broke him regarding the scandal was when his grandmother started crying.
The entertainer further disclosed that brands distanced themselves from him with the excuse that he is a bad influence on the youth and children who see him as a role model.
