Timaya Explains Rift With Eedris Abdulkareem
Afrobeats star Timaya has opened up about his strained relationship with veteran singer Eedris Abdulkareem, attributing it to a lack of personal connection.
In a recent interview with Naija FM in Lagos, Timaya dismissed comparisons between their personalities.
“I don’t talk like Eedris. I don’t behave like him. Nobody is afraid of him because he talks too much,” Timaya said. “I don’t even want people to be afraid of me. I respect myself so that people will respect me.”
Reflecting on their history, Timaya revealed that he was once a member of Abdulkareem’s band but noted they never shared a close relationship.

He added that Abdulkareem made little effort to foster one.
Timaya noted: “I have never had any problem with Eedris. It was just a relationship of the boss and apprentice. I don’t even think he knows my name at that time. I only gave him a shoutout because he was part of my success story. We don’t have any reason to communicate.
“When I was serving in his band, he didn’t had any reason to build a relationship with me. When people are serving you don’t act like you’re tolerating them, treat them like family because you don’t know tomorrow.”
