The year 2022 was filled with a variety of trending topics from Nigerian artists who made headlines due to one scandal or the other.

No matter how hard Nigerian musicians try, scandal always seems to find them; this is due to the nosy eyes of fans and anti-fans.

One might even be pushed to remark that is the cost of being a public figure.

Most often, the news is about their personal lives, relationships, businesses, and families, which causes a lot of drama, confrontations, and arguments between fans and critics.

In 2022, a few Nigerian musicians gained notoriety for entirely wrong reasons. In this article, Mp3bullet.ng has assembled a list of Nigerian artists who gained notoriety for their particular scandal in 2022.

1. Oxlade


Oxlade made headlines after his sex clip went viral on the internet on February 9th, 2022.

The video was leaked on Tuesday night via the social media platform Snapchat. Since the video went viral, internet users have lauded the musician for his ‘relational’ skills.

Although the girl implicated in the controversy has now demanded justice, claiming that her life has come to a halt while the singer moved on smoothly.

2. Timaya


Timaya was detained in March after a woman by the name of Omawumi called him out on Instagram for running over her sister with his car and seriously injuring her.

On a Thursday morning, armed police officers stormed into the musician’s home and took him away.

In the viral footage, the singer can be seen explaining to the police what happened during the suspected hit-and-run event before being taken away a little while later.

Omawumi claims that the reason the controversial artist was detained was that the victim questioned him for destroying her car and he purposefully rammed into her.

3. Portable


This controversial Nigerian musician gained notoriety after YBNL leader Olamide featured him in one of his songs. Even a year later, the Zazu Zeh crooner has continued to get attention, defying expectations that his rise to popularity would be fleeting.
