In a heated online exchange that has sent shockwaves through the Liberian music community, R&B artist Kizzy W has openly accused Joel Greaves, a Liberian music promoter, of being the man behind some of the most damaging moments in his career, from his early days at SNG to his recent no-show at JZyno’s Iowa concert.
The drama unfolded after Kizzy W made a post on social media explaining that he refused to perform in Iowa because he wasn’t paid in full. Joel, who was involved in organizing the show, clapped back publicly, blaming Kizzy for not selling enough tickets and behaving unprofessionally.
In his post, Joel wrote:
“NOT SELLING ONLY 10 TICKETS IN RHODE ISLAND
MR DRINKING MORE LIQUOR
KIZZY – W WANT TO MISBEHAVE ON THIS BLUE APP
YOU BETTER PUT YOURSELF TOGETHER”
That statement triggered an explosive response from Kizzy W, who unleashed a long list of grievances that had clearly been bottled up for years. In a passionate reply, Kizzy accused Joel of:
Ruining his first concert in the U.S. Labeling him a deportee and spreading rumors that he had been involved in domestic violence Offering him only standby tickets and leaving him stranded for hours during a tour Trying to manipulate his immigration status by suggesting he marry someone just to stay in the country Sabotaging his career at SNG, the label where Kizzy first rose to prominence
Kizzy W wrote:
“Aren’t you the same guy? Aren’t you the reason I left SNG? Aren’t you the same guy that was on my team and I left the USA tour with absolutely nothing? Aren’t you the same guy who wanted me to marry a lay girl to stay on my first visit and I refused?
Aren’t you the same guy who said I was deported and had domestic violence and that I wasn’t going to come back? Aren’t you the same liar? Aren’t you the same guy who needs to shut his mouth and get tested cuz of the dirty things you do in Liberia?
Are you not the same Joel who had me on standby tickets for a whole day? Are you not the same Joel whose voice note is with me and you were talking a lot of hate about me? Aren’t you the same guy?”
This public fallout has now drawn attention to long-standing tensions between artists and promoters, especially when it comes to transparency, contracts, and how Liberian artists are treated both at home and abroad.

As of now, Joel Greaves has not issued a formal response beyond the original post, while Kizzy W’s comments continue to stir reactions across Liberian social media, with fans, industry insiders, and fellow musicians weighing in.
It remains unclear whether legal action or further public responses will follow, but one thing is certain, Kizzy W is no longer holding back.
