Taaooma’s Drops Cryptic Post, Ignites Fierce Online Debate: “Rap Legend Pushing 50”

• Comedian Taaoma stirs controversy with a sharp tweet about a “stupid rap legend pushing 50,” sparking wild guesses online
• Fans flood social media, debating if it’s Eedris, MI, Blackface, or another veteran rapper she’s targeting
• Neither Taaoma nor any rapper has responded yet, but the internet is buzzing with memes, jokes, and heated discussions

Popular Nigerian comedian and skit maker Taaooma has sent social media into a frenzy with a cryptic and fiery tweet aimed at an unnamed “rap legend” nearing 50 years old.

Legit.ng recalled that the skitmaker was listed as one of the Nigerian content creators who paid tax to the US government.

Her tweet read:

“There’s this stupid ‘rap legend’ that God will help me to punish. Pushing 50 ee de nironu.”

Though she didn’t name the artist, the Yoruba phrase “pushing 50 ee de nironu” — loosely meaning “almost 50 and still not wise” — delivered a heavy dose of shade that got people talking everywhere.

Within minutes of the tweet, fans and followers flooded their timelines with theories and guesses about who Taaoma could be referring to.

The speculation quickly turned into a heated debate, with many pointing fingers at some of Nigeria’s veteran rap stars.

Some think the shot was aimed at Eedris Abdulkareem, given his age and long-standing reputation in the rap scene. Others suggested MI Abaga, Blackface, or even Reminisce, though fans noted that some mentioned artists are already older than 50.
