FACTCHECK: Did Nicki Minaj Release Tribute for Mohbad?

2

On September 12, a Nigerian artiste, Ilerioluwa Aloba, also known as MohBad (Imole) died in what remains a controversial twist, hitherto.

 

Mohbad’s death, since then, has attracted vast international as well as national comments while sparking protests across the country with the call for scrutiny into the cause of the Imolenization founder’s death.

 

Regarding this, the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), constituted a special investigative unit to probe all allegations hinging around the late Mohbad’s death.

 

In the middle of this, artistes from different parts of the country have released heartwarming tributes to honour the passing of the “Peace and KPK,” singer.

 

But in the middle of this, some individuals have decided to continually share unverified and fake contents, tapping into the emotions of the people and leading them to unusually be misinformed.

 

For example, PIJAlance had faulted the claim that Barak Obama, former president of the United States of America (USA) had drummed support for the “call for justice4mohbad”. It also refuted the claim that MohBad’s age was the same as Tupac Shakur’s as of the time of their deaths.

 

Moving forward, a video of the Trinidadian rapper and musician, Nicki Minaj, musing a tribute song for the late Mohbad, has surfaced on Social Media.

The Video

The first time the video was posted was by a TikTok handle with the username, @KYlyrics captioning “rate the collaboration Peace — Mohbad ft Nicki Minaj”.

 

Five days later, an Instagram handle, @Motyvibeentertainment with more than 200,000 followers also posted the video stating Mohbad ft Nicki Minaj.

 

Aside, there have been different YouTube channels, TikTok accounts and Instagram profiles posting the video while attracting thousands of users’ comments who believe the video, globally.

Though, the PIJAlance was not able to independently fish out the source of the video, our correspondent made use of a reversed Google search to verify the video.

 

The claim: Mohbad ft Nicki Minaj in his song Peace.

 

The video has the song, Peace, played. Peace was released in an album titled Peace in 2022, when the singer was still with his former label, Marlian Music.

Throughout the year until his death, the singer never had a remix of the song nor feature any artiste both national or international.

 

Also, in the video which has alongside, Mohbad’s Peace song, Nicki Minaj’s lyric as followed: “Listen So close, but we were so distant; Wish I’da known in that instant; Ignored the hints or I missed it; I killed it; You’d always be in attendance; No flights, but always attеndant; Handwritten letter, you pеnned it; Them nights we wish never ended; Those rules that we wish we bended; Heartbreak that we never mended; Those messages we unsended; Best friends we somehow unfriended; Ain’t care ’bout who we offended; Parties they wish we attended; Got drunk and laughed, it was splendid,” was never part of the lyrics of Peace, and also, lyrics of Peace remix (because it never existed).

The Nicki Minaj’s lyrics merged alongside the Peace song, was carved out of Minaj’s latest single titled: Last Time I Saw You.

 

Unlike the Mohbad’s song which was in a fast-paced beat, Last Time I Saw You, was sang by the Anaconda crooner, with a slow-pace beat. But through editing, the pace was increased to merge with that of MohBad’s Peace.

 

More so, the official lyric of Last Time I Saw You was released on the Nicki Minaj’s YouTube channel and Instagram profile.

 

Based on the fact that the song, Last Time I Saw You, is the Trinidadian latest single, she is currently busy promoting the song on her various social media platforms.

 

Verdict: the claim that Mohbad ft Nicki Minaj in his song Peace, and that Minaj released a song as a Tribute for Mohbad, are all fake.
