On Wednesday, Kenyan singer Victoria Kimani dropped her own version of Kizz Daniel’s #FvckYouChallenge cover. She didn’t do so without taking shots at some of our faves.
In what is now a viral single, the former Chocolate City label artist blasted Nigerian pop diva Tiwa Savage who she referred to in the track as “Grandma African Bad Gyal” and then went on to call her a prostitute. She also blasted rapper Ycee for allegedly stealing her lyrics without credits.
She posted the video on her Instagram with the accompanying caption: “Challenge Accepted ❗️❗️ @iamkizzdaniel #fvckyouchallenge #fvckyoucover YOU KNOW 🇰🇪🇰🇪 KENYA 🇰🇪 🇰🇪 Had to show up & talk my Truth! CUT MY CHECK YCEE 😈😈😈$$$ 🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾❗️❗️❗️😜😜😜 #fvckyouseason,”
Of course, the song has caused several reactions by observing Nigerians. It is unclear why there is bad blood between these female artists – Seyi Shay dragged Tiwa Savage in her version of the #FvckYouChallenge as well – and Nigerians have come up with several theories.
See few of them below:

I just hate the fact that almost everyone thinks Victoria Kimani was referring to Tiwa Savage in her #FuckYouChallenge. Is Tiwa the only Africa bad girl??? Let's talk about ycee and why he didn't give credit for the line he stole. 🖕y'all..
