Nigerian comedian Kehinde Peter Otolorin, widely recognized as Kenny Blaq, has addressed the misconception that he was the originator of music comedy in Nigeria.

He acknowledged the contributions of the late Gbenga Adeboye, CD John, and others who laid the groundwork for this genre.

Nevertheless, he asserted that he introduced a distinctive "Wizkid and Davido vibe" to music comedy.

In a recent interview with Hip TV, Blaq stated, “Because of the way I did music comedy, a lot of people have the impression that I brought music comedy to Nigeria. Some people think that I started music comedy as a genre.

“But they were music comedians like the late Gbenga Adeboye, Fung Otong, MC Miracle, Maleke and late CD John. But I think what made mine different is my approach towards it.

“I brought the Wizkid and Davido vibe into it. And I was able to do different genres of music with my comedy.

“Those who did music comedy before me, did a particular style of music comedy. They were either doing Igbo or Yoruba music.

“But I was doing mashup, covers, and I was telling stories and I was consistent with it.

“I did not start music comedy but I can say that I’m one of those that have made music comedy strong in this part of the world.”
