Gospel singer Kenny Saint Brown, popularly known as KSB, has made a startling claim about the premature death of Nigerian indigenous rap pioneer Olayitan Oladapo, better known as Dagrin.

Speaking on a recent episode of the Hoha podcast, the former Kennis Music artiste suggested that Dagrin's untimely passing was connected to his verse on her 2010 prayer-themed song, "Turn Me Around." According to KSB, while the late rapper requested fame and material success in his lyrics, he failed to ask for long life.

"When he [Dagrin] died, I cried, because the prayer requests on that ['Turn Me Around'] song God did it for him. And I asked God what happened, He said go and listen to his Prayer Request, there is no long life there. He just said make I blow, 'Mo fe ma gun Bentley,' let everybody know me worldwide, and God granted everything," KSB explained.

Dagrin tragically died on April 22, 2010, at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) following a car accident in Mushin, Lagos. Reports indicate he collided with a stationary truck around 3 a.m. and remained unconscious until police officers rescued him. After days in critical condition, the rapper succumbed to his injuries.

The "Pon Pon Pon" hitmaker is widely recognized as one of the pioneers of indigenous rap in Nigeria, with his music gaining even greater popularity posthumously. His legacy continues to influence the Nigerian music scene, particularly in the indigenous rap genre.

Kenny Saint Brown's revelation has sparked conversations among fans and industry observers about the power of words and intentions, especially in the context of musical expressions that take the form of prayers or manifestations.
