In a post on his X handle, Pheelz expressed concern over rising toxicity among fan bases, emphasising that music is intended to be enjoyed rather than turned into a competition.

“Music was meant to be enjoyed, not to be compared. This comparison game is hurting the sound and culture more than we can ever know,” Pheelz wrote.

The producer, renowned for his signature producer tag, urged listeners to focus on the distinct sound and creative contributions of each artist rather than pitting them against one another.

His statement comes amid increasing online debates among fan communities, where rivalries have sometimes overshadowed the music itself. Industry observers note that such comparisons can undermine the appreciation of artistic diversity and stifle creative expression.
