When 2face dropped his track "Only Me", Everyone believed it was about football star John Mikel Obi after all, they had recently met at a club in London where 2face went over to say hello to |Mikel and he completely snubbed the singer which irritated him enough to write the hit song "Only me:.
The song was about telling someone, allegedly Mikel not to think that only him will make this money and what made it more interesting was the fact that he said in a part of the song " I know say no be everybody sabi play ball" leading many to believe that the song was about Mikel.
Now the legendary singer who recently celebrated his 40th birthday addressed the issue while visiting Brilla Fm. He said;
"I met John Obi Mikel for the first time at the MOBO awards two years before I released the song ‘Only me’ , I won an award on the night, Mikel congratulated me and along side P Square, D’Banj and Don Jazzy we all went to hangout together”
"At the time I did the song, Mikel had issues with his inability to show up for certain Super Eagles games, then some very good rumour monger picked a line from my song as regards patriotism towards representing the National football team and ran with the story of a rift between us, I spoke with Mikel on the phone and we had a good laugh about it”
“Mikel is a cool, somewhat quiet person and people misunderstand that for arrogance”.
