Renowned Nigerian singer, Wande Coal, created quite a stir when he encountered emerging artist Spyro, who showed his respect by prostrating during an encounter in the United States of America.
This unexpected display of cultural reverence occurred at a recent event, where Spyro, the 'Who's Your Guy' crooner, went above and beyond to greet Wande Coal in a traditional manner by lying flat on the ground upon seeing him.
However, Wande Coal appeared somewhat uncomfortable with the gesture and promptly encouraged Spyro to stand up, signaling that such formalities were unnecessary. He even cautioned someone in the background not to record the scene.
In the background, a voice chimed in, asserting that as a veteran artist in the entertainment industry, Wande Coal didn't see the need for such displays of respect from someone like Spyro.
