[1] The song went viral after an open-verse challenge with many different African artists participating such as Tiwa Savage, Seyi Shay, Simi, Falz, Wyclef Jean, Pasuma, Ruggedman, and Sound Sultan, among others.

[3] A similar thing happened with Nigerian rapper Olamide's 2016 hit single "Who You Epp?," with artists like Wande Coal, Phyno, and Reminisce participating in the challenge.

[6][7] Fellow female Nigerian singer Simi's cover for the "Fvck You" challenge sparked controversy due to a lyric in Yoruba that many interpreted as offensive.

The song walks a controversial line, with Daniel expressing anger and victim-blaming, while also admitting his lover remains unaffected and continues living her life.

Despite addressing a common topic of cheating lovers, Okiche pointed out that Daniel's delivery, paired with an effective promotional strategy, helped the song gain widespread attention and resonate with listeners.
