Singer Kokopee has fired back at Zlatan Ibile over the rapper’s comment about his music, declaring that he is not Naira Marley and will not remain silent while people allegedly try to undermine his career.
Kokopee’s outburst followed Zlatan’s tweet, “With 1999 rhythm!!?”, which appeared to mock the sound of his music.
Reacting, Kokopee challenged Zlatan to prove his musical ability in a live studio contest, insisting that both of them should record alongside their respective producers while the public watches.
“You can say anything you like in this life but not my music career. You must come and prove it as you say I no sabi music. It is open one-on-one, me and you inside studio, you and your producer live recording, me and my producer live recording. Make the whole world see,” he said.

Kokopee further questioned Zlatan’s involvement in clothing sales, arguing that a musician who earns as much as the rapper claims does not need to sell clothes.
He ended his message with a warning that he would not allow anyone to pressure him into silence, contrasting his reaction with Naira Marley’s handling of past controversies.
“I no be Naira Marley. Naira Marley be the only person una push campaign for him head, he quiet leave am for God. No ooo, me I be God for earth here, I no fit quiet,” Kokopee declared.
