"Women are fighting a “free pad motion, ' and they’re creating aesthetic luxury pads."

"I totally get your point, but the insult is unnecessary and won’t change anything."

@sisibycocohood stated:

"And this is exactly why a lot of celebrity-owned businesses in Nigeria struggle to grow beyond hype. Many of them create products that their actual supporters can’t even afford. The same fans that stream their music, defend them online, and promote their brand are completely priced out."
