Basketmouth Speaks On Why He Wasn't At AY Live Show

Reacting to speculations of silent rivalry between Basketmouth and Ayo Makun; his colleague in the industry, the comedian opened up to Punch SaturdayBeats. 



This comes after he was spotted at the lobby of the hotel where AY’s annual
Easter show was held, dressed casually and soon after driving off  without even getting into the hall. This further fuelled the speculations amidst the people around,  who now believe without a doubt there's ‘beef’ between the comedians.

When recently interviewed by Punch Saturday Beats, Basketmouth said,

“I was not booked to appear at AY’s show. My name was not publicised as part of the people to be at the show. It is not about comedians being united; AY did his show and never mentioned that Basketmouth would perform, so why would people expect me to be there? It doesn’t make sense.”

On why he had to be at the venue if he knew he wasn’t going to enter the hall, he said,

 “It was just a coincidence that I was at the venue of the show while it was ongoing. I could not even be a guest at AY’s show because I had another gig on that day I was rushing off to.

“The way we think in this country is very funny. You go to the market to buy a Mercedes and hope to get a Rolls Royce engine, it is not possible. They sold a product and said that some people would perform, so why should people expect that I would be there? There is no beef between AY and I. I am an easy going person and I’m very cordial with everybody,” he said.



Na wah...people and their insinuations!...

    9. Na lie. What other gig? Basket mouth is a big name. Na private gig?? The show would have been publicized too abi? And why show up at the venue in the first place if he had no intention of attending? To scope out the crowd abi? Read between the lines people. Stop being so gullible. Him tok say he be Rolls Royse and AY na Mercedes so he too big for AY. Na yab that na. Childishness!!! Isn't there enuff money to go around plus extra remain? ??

    1. The beef is real, on AY and Mabel's anniversary last week, I noticed basketmouth's wife who normally congratulates every one and sundry especially comedians and their wives, totally shunned AY and Mabel's day. Also basket has been featured in all AY live so why is this different? If you know basket, u would know how arrogant he is, his childishness even made him come to the venue of the show for no reason, money no be sense oh, see him calling himself Rolls royce and ay mercedes, God humbles the proud

    4. Na dem sabi. All I know is that I watched the skit of the Jega saga done by Ay and it's was dryyyyyyyy.. Infact the only person that made it a bit funny was the guy playing the sign language. AY bored that shit outta me.

  14. At least Basket mouth should have entered the hall since he was at the venue to just say hello and leave.He knew AY's show was on,he went to the venue and called it coincidence?I think both of them are not in good terms.

    1. Is it by force? Whether or not he was engaged elsewhere, he doesn't even owe the freaking media any apology. Ahn ahn! What is it sef? Cos AY had a show, Basket mouth must attend. Mtchweew.

      The show was da bomb tho. For the first time I enjoyed AY's show. I'm sure he rushed to do that comedy on the elections so someone else doesn't do it before him.

    1. Exactly !!!

      I couldn't have said it better ..I guess basket mouth thinks that A.y doesn't deserve all the accolades and money he makes hosting show and featuring other comedians while calling it A.Y show . It's annoying tbh..but a.y is first and foremost a business man before a comedian. And he's very smart .. And for that it's allowed .

      Basket mouth on the under hand can headline a comedy show all on his own ,his talent is just so special . But the beef could be he's not makin as much as a.y? And can't fathom why a talentless fake comedian is more popular .

      Well bright, that's where people's destiny are different . Next time when you so mad at a.y think of linda Ikeji and mama nnuku bag, No be same gossip they been they do?

  21. Whatever it may be. Being celebs and colleagues in the same industry does not automatically translate to them being friends. He was not invited to perform that day, why would he then go into the show room? He can be anywhere he wants to, his money, his time.

  22. Abegi there's beef,if there's no beef,then attend the show as a guest nah,must u perform.u guys should settle abeg...

  25. AY is a business man not a comedian...his jokes are so dry. Am so angry that I needed to laugh so I went out and bought 30days in Atlanta with my money but it didn't crack me up. Am so happy Stella's blog helped me out that day..AY your jokes are over rated and very dry...infact why were you shouting warri warri in that movie? The fact is this, the advert of the movie is more interesting than the movie itself.

  30. Lies! The easter show was funny! Esp the Jega gig! He might not be so funny like the others but he has good business acumen and always know what and how to pull the crowd! Let us always admit the truth and stop the bad belle! A comedian once said that if you don't or cannot laugh at jokes, it is not his fault, it is because your problem is bigger than his jokes! 30 days in Atlanta was funny abeg!
