‘Phyno is the greatest Nigerian rapper’ – Erigga

Nigerian rapper, Erhiga Agarivbie, popularly known as Erigga has named Phyno ‘the greatest Nigerian rapper of all time’, citing his ability to stay relevant through different eras.

Erigga made his opinion known during a recent interview with Echoo Room.

The rapper spoke about his recent hit single with Phyno, ‘Up Iweka’, saying it was a product of a long-term conversation between them.

He said, “I have always wanted to do a song with Phyno. We have always had that conversation.

“Whenever I told him of my intention, he would always say it was left to me.

“When I want to make an album, it is always a problem trying to look out for features because I am not that guy that just puts everybody on a song. Sometimes, the collaboration won’t come out when the energies don’t match.

“I look at Phyno as someone who has been in the game and lived through different times.

“He is the GOAT. Phyno is the greatest Nigerian rapper because he lived those times, and he is still relevant.”
