Mike Skinner and his former collaborator Leo 'The Lion' Ihenacho have become embroiled in a very public spat following Ihenacho's appearance on The Voice at the weekend.
Skinner took to his blog to dismiss Ihenacho's role with The Streets as just a "session singer", after Ihenacho appeared on singing contest The Voice describing his experience as a member of The Streets, which Skinner formed in 1994.
Ihenacho appeared on The Streets' famous track 'Dry Your Eyes', and even appeared alongside Skinner at the 2006 BRIT Awards. However, it seems Skinner believes Ihenacho overexagerrated his role in the project for the cameras.
"Leo The Lion (Ihenacho) wasn't in the streets. He was a session singer on a few album tracks. He also sang on tour for a bit. He wasn't part of any songwriting," Skinner wrote on his blog.
It seems Ihenacho isn't going to take the attack lying down, as he was quick to hit back at Skinner in a series of tweets, calling the rapper a "total disgrace" and an "egotistical a**ehole", even claiming Skinner refuses to be happy for him. "It's just incredible how some people can never ever want others to succeed.."
最近The Voice UK的参赛选手Leo Ihenacho以前跟Mike有过合作关系，比如在Dry Your Eyes等几首曲目中献声。他在节目中声称自己以前是The streets的一员，但是Mike在博客中写到“Leo并不在The Streets里，他只是几首歌里的session singer（暂翻：献声歌手/人声伴奏歌手），也出现在几次巡演中。他没有参与任何歌曲的创作。”
Leo就火了，在推特里发了好几条口水战微博，形容Mike为"total disgrace"、"egotistical a**ehole"（省略。。。）
