A TikTok-style tasting clip amplified by Instablog9ja shows US rapper 6ix9ine sampling Nigerian staples—and dismissing fufu in a way many Nigerians online described as disrespectful.
The clip triggered a familiar pattern: cultural pride versus “it’s just his taste,” with arguments spilling into quote-tweets, reaction videos and meme edits.
The irony is that the outrage also doubled as free marketing for Nigerian cuisine, as users posted their own fufu appreciation content in response.
Legit.ng (News/entertainment site) also echoed the same development, noting: “the video sparked reactions from Nigerians” (https://www.legit.ng/). Instablog9ja (Instagram) also echoed the same development, noting: “called it ‘trash’” (https://www.instagram.com/p/DSlAtaxjxoR/).
Echotitbits take: Food is identity. Even when framed as personal preference, harsh language lands like disrespect. Watch next for whether 6ix9ine clarifies or doubles down—either way, Nigerian food content will keep riding the algorithm wave.
