2017 has seen Nigerian music grow at an exceptional pace all over the world. Two musicians are mainly responsible for this – Davido and Wizkid.
While Davido has flourished in Nigeria and Africa, Wizkid has continued to shine outside the country. Naturally, their fans and even the musicians themselves have a rivalry with each other.
However, none of them have come out to expressly say they have beef with each other – until now. After winning the Future Awards Africa Prize for Music, Davido in his thank you speech said "For this industry, me i no dey fight anybody o.”
