In a candid interview with Punch Newspapers, Wizkid’s father expressed his concerns over the rising tension between the two Afrobeats stars. He explained how important it is to remain strong amid the chaos of fan rivalries and public criticism. Wizkid’s father shared that he advised his son to ignore the provocations from Davido’s fans, emphasizing that their intention is often to create drama rather than appreciate the music. He said:

“I told my son that he shouldn’t look or listen to whatever the boys who are supporters of Davido are saying. The supporters are only looking for what they will say to collect money and all of that.”

Chief Balogun highlighted that getting involved with such distractions could take Wizkid’s focus away from his craft and dilute the artistry that has made him an international sensation.

“They are just looking for what they are going to eat and I told him not to pay much attention to them,” Wizkid’s father added.

In other news, Nigerian music superstar Wizkid has continued to express his disdain for fellow artist Davido, taking every opportunity to criticize and belittle him. The ongoing feud between the two prominent musicians has escalated further, drawing attention across social media platforms.

Recently, an incident reignited their rivalry when a video clip was shared on X (formerly Twitter) showcasing a brief and seemingly cordial interaction between Wizkid and Davido at a public event. In the video, the two were seen exchanging greetings, sparking curiosity among fans who thought the two might have settled their differences. However, a netizen accompanying the post implied that Wizkid must be secretly wishing for more moments like that encounter, suggesting a longing for reconciliation.

In response, Wizkid wasted no time confirming the user’s speculation but took it a step further by delving into details of what transpired that day. According to him, the scenario was not as it appeared on the surface. Wizkid alleged that Davido and his entourage had crashed his DJ’s party in Lagos, showing up uninvited. He claimed that the appearance was not a friendly gesture but an intrusion on what was meant to be a private event.

Wizkid further asserted that Davido’s behavior was nothing new, alleging that the singer frequently sought him out wherever he went, describing him dismissively as his “fanboy.” He insisted that Davido’s efforts to connect with him were not genuine and were only attempts to gain attention or relevance in settings where Wizkid was already making headlines.

The harsh words from Wizkid have only added fuel to the already intense rivalry between the two musicians. Fans of both artists have been divided, with some siding with Wizkid for his candor, while others criticize him for taking unnecessary jabs at Davido. The situation has led to a social media storm, with hashtags related to both artists trending as supporters and critics weigh in on the unfolding drama.

Despite the tensions, it remains unclear if the rivalry will deescalate anytime soon or if this is merely another chapter in their long-standing competition. For now, the public can only watch and wait to see what happens next in this ongoing clash between two of Nigeria’s biggest musical icons.

In his words:

“Want what? He looks for me everywhere I go like a fan boy he is! This was an event for one of my DJ’s Skyla in Lagos! We no invite dem!”
