I have no rivals in comedy, I respect comedy legends – Seyi Law

Comedian Seyi Law has stated that he has no rivals in the comedy scene, even among well-known figures like Alibaba, Julius Agwu, Basketmouth, and AY.

He made this claim during an episode of Hip TV’s “Trending,” where he emphasized that he feels unmatched by these legends.

“At some point in the comedy industry, there was no rift and there wasn’t any reason to start categorising the comedians,” Seyi Law said.

The comedian, who identifies as Yoruba, explained that he cannot compete with those who have supported him in the past, and he is not focused on how comedians are ranked.

“I have played with everybody and I still respect everybody. We respect the likes of Alibaba. At some point, I had to go on a comedy tour with Julius Agwu who didn’t discriminate against me. I’ve covered events for Basketmouth. He has paid me for shows. I’ve also worked with AY.”

He further stated, “And as a Yoruba person, we don’t disrespect anybody who has given us food. So, they are all highly respected. I respect them a lot. And no matter the differences they have, they’re still my senior colleagues in the business. And they have not had reasons to compete with me. So anywhere you place me on the ranking is okay by me. I don’t want to be one of those people who is dragging ranking with anybody in the industry. As long as we are all doing fine, kudos. The most important thing is that we must not allow the industry to suffer.”
