Naira Marley’s latest single, “Pxy Drip,” has sparked mixed reactions online, especially in light of the ongoing controversy surrounding the death of Nigerian singer Mohbad. Despite being “canceled” by social media users months ago, Naira Marley has managed to regain some attention with the song’s success, which has climbed the Apple Music Chart and garnered support from celebrities like Ayra Starr and Regina Daniels. However, the song’s popularity has not silenced the accusations and criticism directed at Naira Marley and his associate, Sam Larry, who have been accused of having a hand in Mohbad’s tragic death.

Mohbad, a former signee of Naira Marley’s Marlian Music label, passed away under controversial circumstances, leading to widespread outrage and calls for justice. Many fans and critics have accused Naira Marley and Sam Larry of bullying and intimidating Mohbad during his time with the label, with some even alleging that their actions contributed to his untimely death. These accusations have fueled a wave of backlash against Naira Marley, with hashtags like #JusticeForMohbad trending on social media and protests demanding a thorough investigation into the matter.

Despite the controversy, Naira Marley has continued to release music, with “Pxy Drip” becoming a surprising hit. While some fans have embraced the song, others have criticized him for seemingly moving on without addressing the allegations or showing remorse. The video of celebrities dancing to the track has further divided opinions, with some viewing it as a sign of support for Naira Marley and others condemning it as insensitive to Mohbad’s memory.

The situation highlights the complexities of separating art from the artist, especially when serious allegations are involved. While Naira Marley’s music continues to gain traction, the shadow of Mohbad’s death looms large, leaving many to question whether the artist can ever fully redeem his reputation. For now, the calls for justice remain loud, and the controversy surrounding Naira Marley and Sam Larry shows no signs of fading.
