Following the ongoing feud between Nigerian music heavyweights, Davido and Wizkid, has once again captured the attention of fans and the media alike.

The latest fallout began in April 2024, when Wizkid threw subtle shade at Davido, which spiraled into a heated social media exchange. 

Tensions reignited after Wizkid shared a video seemingly mocking Davido for begging an associate, sparking widespread speculation that it was a direct jab at Davido.

Davido, known for his outspoken nature, responded by taking shots at Wizkid’s career, calling it "dead" and claiming that he had outshone Wizkid in terms of relevance. 

He mocked Wizkid's stature and hinted that he would have no trouble surpassing him musically. 

This marked yet another chapter in their decade-long rivalry that has often been fueled by their fanbases—Wizkid FC and the 30 Billion Gang.

The feud has a long history, despite earlier attempts at reconciliation. Back in 2017, Wizkid invited Davido to perform alongside him at a Lagos concert, leading many to believe that the tension between the two had subsided. 

However, the rivalry resurfaced with both artists using social media to throw jabs at each other over issues of relevance, music quality, and influence in the Nigerian music industry.

In response to this latest attack, Davido took to Instagram to maintain a motivational stance, posting about staying true to one’s craft and lifting others. 

His post was interpreted by fans as a subtle dismissal of Wizkid’s digs, with many lauding him for taking the high road and not engaging in further social media drama.

This latest exchange has also drawn reactions from other artists like Kizz Daniel and Tekno, further complicating the dynamics within the Nigerian Afrobeats scene. 

Despite their feud, both artists continue to dominate the charts, and many fans still hope for future collaborations between the two, though this seems unlikely given the current state of their relationship.

At present, Davido and Wizkid remain two of Africa’s biggest musical exports, each boasting a massive fanbase and international acclaim. 

While their rivalry has been entertaining for fans, it also highlights the competitive nature of the music industry, particularly in Afrobeats, where both artists have set the bar high for others in the genre. 

Whether or not they will reconcile again remains to be seen, but for now, fans are closely watching to see how this ongoing saga unfolds. 

The drama is just another reminder of the high-stakes world of music and fame, where even personal grievances can quickly become public spectacles.
