Iyanya further emphasized Kcee's exceptional dancing skills, highlighting their strong bond and friendship. He expressed his gratitude towards Kcee, stating:

“Kcee was the person who bought me my first flight ticket from Calabar to Lagos, and I stayed with him for two years. So, it was Kcee who possessed the better dancing skills, I’m telling you since you don’t want to listen. We were together this morning before I came for this interview.”

In a previous tweet, Iyanya expressed his appreciation to God for a significant career turnaround in 2022. He shared that in December 2021, he struggled to secure shows and had to beg for opportunities to perform, solely for visibility.

He extended his gratitude to God for the remarkable breakthrough and also acknowledged his fellow industry colleagues who played a role in his comeback.

In his words:

“2022 December, I wake up and everyday to alerts for shows, haven’t had this kind of busy December since 2017. 20+ shows in one month. God Thank you 🙏🏿

And to my fans and everyone who streamed my music this year, God Bless you. There’s got to be more, and I promise 2023 will be a better year for everyone who has supported me this year. We will definitely have a great 2023.
