Ghanaian-based Nigerian act, Mr Eazi was roasted on Twitter by some of his countrymen when he gave credence to how Ghanaian music has influenced that of Nigeria.
Ghana's influence on present day "Naija Sound" cannot be over emphasized!!!

@mreazi getting lynched for stating a fact. Where is the Ghana-Naija tension from? Shouldn't it be an honour that we influence each other?
