Priddy Ugly Controversy


In a debate that was started by AKA on female rappers, which saw a lot of rappers giving in their two cents, Priddy Ugly also had a few things to say. However, when Priddy Ugly added his two-cents to the debate and directed his tweets to AKA, he was dragged and many reminded him of how little they know about his music.

Priddy basically disagreed with what AKA had to say about female rappers and this was his response.


As much as the Bonita rapper was speaking sense, the reception was not one he expected. He was dragged by many with some even going in on his music.


While life is rosy for the rapper who joined a long list of artists that left Ambitiouz Entertainment, it seems as if someone is trying to sabotage him - or at least that is what he thought.

After fans contacted him about his albums D.N.A and EGYPT being removed online, the rapper was furious and went off on social media about the incident. He suggested that his former record label, Ambitiouz Entertainment, may have had something to do with the disappearing of his music - to which fans dragged the label.

However, it turns out that Ambitiouz entertainment was not to blaim for the entire mess. After investigations were made, it came out to be a metadata issue. The Tshela rapper admitted that it was Ambitiouz's fault in a statement that he released.
