“Rick Ross is in town, he should want to meet MI. This is the guy here,” Abaga submitted.

Explaining further, the top star said when the event eventually happened, he found out that rappers were not fully represented in the line-up.

The rapper said he checked his social media and realized that there was already a conversation about what had happened. Abaga said he then disclosed that he was actually invited but asked to meet the rapper personally, and unfortunately, it didn't happen.

Abaga added that until Nigerians demand respect for hip-hop, they wouldn't be treated the way they want.
