Peller fires back at Ycee, calls him very anyhow OG over podcast remarks

Nigerian TikTok creator Peller responded to rapper Ycee’s criticism by calling him a “very anyhow OG” in a social media video. Peller reacted after Ycee, speaking on the Afropolitan podcast, described Peller’s online content as outrageous and said it reflects a broader trend where intelligence and academic excellence are no longer celebrated in Nigeria.

Ycee had referenced internet personalities like Peller as bad examples, coining the term “Peller culture.” In his reply, Peller accused Ycee of being an illiterate elder who resorts to name‑calling instead of making his point respectfully, adding that the same “olodo uprising” used to promote noise should stop and urging Ycee to respect himself.

The exchange highlights growing tension between older entertainers and new‑generation content creators over the perceived value of online entertainment versus traditional education. It also raises questions about how public figures handle criticism without resorting to personal attacks, especially on platforms where discourse can quickly turn hostile.

Considering the feud’s visibility, what responsibility do influencers have to model constructive dialogue, and how might audiences encourage healthier conversations around creativity and education in the digital age?
