By Aderinola Abimbola

Nigerian rising star Ayorinde Mafoluku Ayodele, popularly known as Ayo Maff, has lauded fellow artist Chike for his generosity and support.

In a post on his X handle on Monday, the 19-year-old praised Chike and revealed that he gave him all the royalties from their collaborative song.

Ayo Maff also noted that Chike made himself available for all recordings without charging him a dime.

“I didn’t pay him a dime for the verse, I never paid for a session, he showed up to my listening party and showed me Love. As if that’s not enough, he gave me all the Royalties on our song @Officialchike. I know you probably don’t want me to tell anyone, but I’m sorry, big man, the world has to know what you did for me, and you have to know how grateful I am. I’m so glad the song title is Realness,” he wrote.
