Nigerian musician Innocent Idibia, known professionally as 2Face, has clarified the stance of his former bandmate Faze in the long-standing dispute between him and another ex-bandmate, Blackface. The feud between 2Face and Blackface, which dates back to the disbanded group Plantashun Boiz, has been marked by allegations of intellectual property theft, with Blackface repeatedly accusing 2Face of stealing his songs. 2Face has consistently denied these claims.

During a recent performance at the Made in Benue Festival in Makurdi, 2Face addressed the crowd, stating that Faze has maintained a neutral position in the dispute. He emphasized that the rift between him and Blackface does not involve Faze in any way. As a member of the now-defunct Plantashun Boiz, Faze’s stance is significant, given the group’s history and the ongoing feud between the other two members.

The origins of the rift between 2Face and Blackface can be traced back to the breakup of Plantashun Boiz in the 2000s. Following the split, Blackface accused 2Face of being responsible for the group’s dissolution and also alleged that he had stolen his songs. Despite several attempts at reconciliation, the relationship between the two musicians has remained strained, with periods of calm often being short-lived.

2Face’s clarification on Faze’s position suggests that the dispute is confined to him and Blackface, with no involvement from their former bandmate. This development may provide insight into the dynamics of the feud and potentially pave the way for a more constructive dialogue between the parties involved. As the Nigerian music scene continues to evolve, the resolution of this long-standing dispute could have significant implications for the industry and the legacy of Plantashun Boiz. With 2Face and Faze seemingly on good terms, fans may be hoping for a reunion or collaboration in the future, although the fate of the relationship between 2Face and Blackface remains uncertain.
