The controversy began after a social media user identified as Charles accused the artiste of concentrating solely on his personal projects while allegedly ignoring struggling Igbo creatives within the music industry. The critic claimed that many talented musicians from the region are finding it difficult to thrive due to a lack of support from established stars.
Charles further alleged that Flavour has never promoted, signed, or collaborated with young Igbo artistes, questioning the singer’s association with controversial cleric and entertainer, Odumeje, which he argued does little to advance the careers of emerging talents. He also suggested that Flavour avoids working with new artistes out of fear that they could eventually surpass him.
The critic went on to accuse Igbo musicians of selfishness, claiming that the absence of mentorship and support has driven some young creatives into frustration after their musical aspirations failed to materialize.
In his response, Flavour dismissed the accusations and advised the critic to focus on financial empowerment and establish a record label to support young Igbo talents himself. In a social media post, the singer encouraged him to take practical steps rather than apportion blame, urging him to contribute meaningfully to the growth of upcoming artistes from the region.
