The Liberian music industry is once again witnessing a heated rivalry as tensions rise between Trapco star Barsee Mokopala Kiloda and TeddyRide. The feud escalated after Barsee deliberately refused to perform at the Teddy Movement Festival on March 15, citing disrespect from TeddyRide as the reason for his absence.
The rift between the two artists reportedly began when TeddyRide removed Barsee’s verse from his song “Wleesayma” and replaced it with a CIC Verse. While Barsee had no issues with the decision, he was deeply offended by how TeddyRide addressed the matter publicly. According to sources, TeddyRide discussed the issue on a podcast and made Facebook posts that Barsee found highly disrespectful. As a result, Barsee declined to participate in the festival, making his stance clear.
Earlier today, TeddyRide took to Facebook, reigniting the feud with a direct status clash aimed at Barsee. The tension quickly caught the attention of music lovers and industry insiders, who have been closely following the brewing controversy. Barsee, showing no intention of backing down, responded with a sharp counterattack, stating that TeddyRide’s career relies more on traveling than his music and that he only gains hits when he features other artists.
