‘Even Jay Z will flop without proper hype prior to event – 2face Idibia

A week ago, Nigerian pop star 2face Idibia held a ‘not too successful’ gig in Rwanda with an all-time low turnout of about 50 guests.

Obviously disappointed, 2face managed to give those who came out a good show although, as expected, the internet made a big deal out of it.

Thenetng caught up with the living legend to comment on the disappointing event and he said, ‘I’m not the organizer of the show, I don’t live in Rwanda but apparently they didn’t do their homework. No matter the artiste’s name, if you don’t do your homework, promo and hype well that’s the result you’ll get. If you take Jay Z to Lagos without proper hype, same thing will happen’.

Asked if he was upset about the lack of crowd at the venue, ‘Naturally I was, but then I didn’t do anything wrong. I was contracted, I went, I fulfilled my part and the few people that came, I made sure they had a nice time and that’s all that matters to me’.
