While Kanye West is being roasted on social media for his strange perspective on slavery and American politics, Baseone is starting a Nigerian conversation and he is taking an unpopular angle.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Baseone bared his mind on the topic on slavery and linked it to the Nigerian context. The rapper ‘partially’ took sides with Kanye West who is taking the heat for saying slavery is a thing of ‘choice’. Baseone used the instance of Nigerians trooping abroad in search of a better life, to drive his point home. He opined that most of them leave their native country to foreign lands to do odd routines and he termed it as a form of neo-slavery. He stated in his post that these set of people have a choice of making their home country a better place but instead they choose to go abroad where they are treated as slaves.

I dont agree totally with him but one thing is true,...If you live as a foreigner in the Western world,especially of African descent,you will understand a bit of what he is talking about. Treating you wrong is not only at work,it might now even occur at work because people will get to know you and know the type of person you are,and appreciate you,but walking on the street,and in so many other areas,you get treated differently,but you just have to grow a thick skin........and be careful.

you are as ignorant as Kanye.
Hundreds of thousands of Nigerians are living very good lives abroad because of honest work and the choices they make
