In the video making round on social media, which was sighted by The Daily Page, Seyi Shay said to a Nigerian Idol contestant that he can never make good money with music.

According to her, the 17 year old contestant should not have auditioned for the show at all; even though he has a singing voice, his performance was terrible.

”Somebody lied to you. Somebody told you to come here and audition. You should go back and tell them that they aren’t your friend because that was not a good audition. You have a sweet talking voice and it comes out in your singing voice but your performance is terrible. You are never going to make money being a singer. I love you, you are so sweet but you are not a singer. You are not a singer.

For songwriting, hit me up, we could talk but that singing, it is not going to work. Sorry Darling,” she said.
