Like the saying goes, ‘Like father like son’ could be the tale of wave
making sensation, Davido, with his Nigerian billionaire businessman
father, Mr. Deji Adeleke.
Davido’s father recently got himself a
brand new Bently and his son Davido, took the snap shot and posted it on
his social media with a prayer of hope.
Davidoofficial: Congrats Daddy on your new toy!! ur d baddest! Inspiration!!mine comin soon!! BABA OLOWO!!
The
last few months have been a handful for Davido – he didn’t just make a
very successful debut in the Nigerian music scene, but accelerated to
the ‘A-list’ spot – something that has taken other ‘A-listers’ years to
achieve. He’s released a debut album with chart topping singles, won
international awards and performed in and out of the country. What else
could he ask for?
Fans
of arguably two of Nigeria's biggest singers at the moment, Ayo
Balogun(Wizkid) and David Adeleke(Davido) have lent their voice to
ongoing supremacy battle that started when Wizkid embarked on a tour of
the United States few weeks after Davido won BET awards.
Read some fans reactions to Wizkid & Davido’s fight below, the first even blames it on Don Jazzy:
Blame Don Jazzy – Theo Okenyi, CEO, Zenith Entertainment
Don Jazzy is to
blame for their beef. Instead of playing the big brother role by calming
frayed nerves, he chose to stir it and this is creating bad blood among
the younger artistes. So please, you should direct your questions to
Don Jazzy.
Let them fight on –Precious Chukwu, undergraduate
Let them fight on! The more beef there is, the more tracks we will have; let the beef roll on! It’s good for hip hop.
Cold war is healthy –Sam Sam, lecturer
It is a normal
development. Even in families, brothers fight brothers and sisters fight
sisters. Rivalry and cold war is healthy because it helps all the
concerned parties to sit up. They will soon resolve the issue because
it’s neither their first nor would it be their last.
Wizkid is to blame –Pete Goodness, businessman
They have been
having this cold war for quite a while and I think the blame should be
heaped squarely on Wizkid. He undermined Davido when he said that the
instrumental of Davido’s planned collabo with him was below standard and
that he wouldn’t want to lower his brand by going ahead with the
arrangement. Even if that was true, shouldn’t he have talked to Davido
one-on-one rather than disclosing it to a third party? If I were Davido,
I wouldn’t have taken such an insult lightly.
Blame it on Wizkid –Deji Ibrahim, current affairs commentator
I will answer your
question by lifting some of their tweet-fight from my phone. Davido
tweeted, ‘Snitch. No wonder you are not rolling with your day 1 niggas.’
And in reply, Wizkid left the subject matter entirely and addressed
another issue thus: “Thank you so much New York! Boys talk, men work.”
Did you hear that? Is Wizkid now referring to Davido as a boy while he
is a man? Okay. By your physical rating, who looks more like a boy
between them? Even in terms of current national and international
rating, isn’t Davido ahead of Wizkid? So, I would say that it is
Wizkid’s fault.
Davido more mature –Ade Mommodu, strategist
What’s my business
with their feud? They’ve got their fame and money so if they choose to
wash their dirty linen in public, it’s their choice. But from what I
read in their tweets, Davido seems to be more mature.
It’s a gang up against Davido
–Chinelo Okocha, corps member
Judging from what I
have read about the face-off, I would blame Wande Coal, D’banj and
Wizkid for the controversy. I see it as a gang-up and Don Jazzy is the
unseen hand behind it all. That was why Wande Coal’s manager all of a
sudden started charging Davido so much for his planned collabo with
Wande. Davido should just forget them and face his career.
Blame it on Wizkid –Anne Adeseyi, undergraduate
It’s obvious that
Wizkid is not comfortable with Davido’s soaring success. He exploits
every available opportunity to throw jabs at Davido. And Davido always
tries to cover up by claiming there is no feud between them. They should
realise that they are brothers in the industry.
Wizkid is enjoying the beef –Maxwell Great, petroleum engineer
According to what I
read about the face-off sometime back, Don Jazzy was said to have
instructed Wande Coal, who used to mentor both Davido and Wizkid to stop
visiting or associating with Davido. That was in 2012 and it was all
about a rumour that D’Banj had signed Davido to his record label. One
thing led to another and the kid-singers have been pitched against each
other. And Wizkid seems to be stoking the embers.
Feud is strategy to reinforce their relevance
–Igwenagu Chinolue, pharmacist
Don’t mind them.
They are only trying to make themselves more relevant. That’s usually
one of the strategies that celebrities use to reinforce their relevance
before the public. They keep throwing up one controversy or the other
about themselves. They know what they are doing and it’s working for
them.
Blame Davido for face-off –Linda Chidalu
The truth of the
matter is that though Wizkid may be wrong but I am blaming Davido for
the renewed face-off. Why is he always trying to force himself on Wizkid
for them to be friends? The world is so large and full of potential
wonderful friends so why should he force himself on Wizkid? Since he has
seen that Wizkid does not have a soft spot for him, why doesn’t he look
elsewhere for friendship and partnership?
Don Jazzy is the unseen hand behind the quarrel –Blessed Nnajiofor, lawyer
What many people
don’t know is that there is an unseen hand behind the knife tearing
Davido and Wizkid apart. And that hand belongs to Don Jazzy. Wizkid and
Davido should look inwards so that they will know what is really tearing
them apart before they tear themselves to pieces.
Wande Coal is a politician–Ayorinde Jennifer, civil servant
Wande Coal behaved
like a politician. Why would he allow Don Jazzy to choose friends for
him? Does anyone tell Jazzy whom to associate with? Why is he afraid of
Don Jazzy? Is Don Jazzy God? Even if Davido had truly been signed on by
D’Banj’s Label, isn’t it his choice, his life, career and talent? Did he
buy or inherit the talent from Don Jazzy? If Jazzy has issues with
D’Banj, why should he transfer his aggression to an innocent hardworking
boy? Wande Coal rather than do what was right acted like a politician.
It’s just a rivalry war –Lawrence Igweh, student
Davido and Wizkid’s
feud is not new. What is playing out now dates back to sometime in
2012. But as far as I’m concerned, it’s just another rivalry war between
artistes and that is not something new in the industry. It’s all about
the fight for supremacy.
Wizkid uncomfortable with Davido –Adebayo Ibrahim
I don’t know the
details of the issue. But from the little information I have about the
artistes, Wizkid appears to be uncomfortable with Davido’s galloping
fame. But he is only being childish because fighting Davido cannot stop
him. Wizkid should remember Bob Marley’s lines, Who Jar blesses, no one
curse.
Davido will never see Wizkid’s back –David Balogun, undergraduate
In this world, some
people would want to be wiser and grow taller than their fathers even
as toddlers. That’s the best way to qualify Davido. If not, why is he
always trying to pose as if he is better than Wizkid? But the truth is
that no matter how hard he tries, Davido will never see Wizkid’s back in
the industry.
Davido should respect Wizkid –Beatrice Hodonu, aspiring model
Davido is to be
blamed. Even if he is older than Wizkid which I’m not sure of, he should
at least respect him as an elder in the industry. As far as the
Nigerian music industry is concerned, Davido is Wizkid’s junior and he
should accord that respect to him no matter what.
It’s fight between D’Banj and Don Jazzy’s camps –Elendu James, importer
When you consider
that somehow, Don Jazzy, Wande Coal and D’banj are connected with the
current face-off between Wizkid and Davido, you will realise that it’s
all about supremacy; call it rivalry between two main camps and the two
camps are D’Banj’s and Don Jazzy’s.
Davido should ignore Wizkid –Graham Stephens, computer analyst
If I were Davido, I
would have ignored Wizkid long ago and faced my career. Silence is
golden and it is usually the best answer to answer an attention-seeker.
Wizkid should be cautioned –Temitope Adebiyi, undergraduate
Should I tell you
the truth? They are fighting a supremacy war, period! I just pray that
it doesn’t degenerate into a situation where they try to take the life
of each other via hired assassins or charms. They should try to limit
the war to tweeter and instagram. As for who is at fault, I don’t really
no. But I think that Wizkid should be cautioned.
Davido started the fight –Sikirat Adebayo, hair stylist
I know very well
that Wizkid isn’t at fault. Davido is always looking for his trouble by
poking his nose where he has no business; Davido started this fight.

Don Jazzy? Is Don Jazzy God? Even if Davido had truly been signed on by
D’Banj’s Label, isn’t it his choice, his life, career and talent? Did he
buy or inherit the talent from Don Jazzy? If Jazzy has issues with
D’Banj, why should he transfer his aggression to an innocent hardworking
boy? Wande Coal rather than do what was right acted like a politician.
It’s just a rivalry war –Lawrence Igweh, student
Davido and Wizkid’s
feud is not new. What is playing out now dates back to sometime in
2012. But as far as I’m concerned, it’s just another rivalry war between
artistes and that is not something new in the industry. It’s all about
the fight for supremacy.
Wizkid uncomfortable with Davido –Adebayo Ibrahim
I don’t know the
details of the issue. But from the little information I have about the
artistes, Wizkid appears to be uncomfortable with Davido’s galloping
fame. But he is only being childish because fighting Davido cannot stop
him. Wizkid should remember Bob Marley’s lines, Who Jar blesses, no one
curse.
Davido will never see Wizkid’s back –David Balogun, undergraduate
In this world, some
people would want to be wiser and grow taller than their fathers even
as toddlers. That’s the best way to qualify Davido. If not, why is he
always trying to pose as if he is better than Wizkid? But the truth is
that no matter how hard he tries, Davido will never see Wizkid’s back in
the industry.
Davido should respect Wizkid –Beatrice Hodonu, aspiring model
Davido is to be
blamed. Even if he is older than Wizkid which I’m not sure of, he should
at least respect him as an elder in the industry. As far as the
Nigerian music industry is concerned, Davido is Wizkid’s junior and he
should accord that respect to him no matter what.
It’s fight between D’Banj and Don Jazzy’s camps –Elendu James, importer
When you consider
that somehow, Don Jazzy, Wande Coal and D’banj are connected with the
current face-off between Wizkid and Davido, you will realise that it’s
all about supremacy; call it rivalry between two main camps and the two
camps are D’Banj’s and Don Jazzy’s.
Davido should ignore Wizkid –Graham Stephens, computer analyst
If I were Davido, I
would have ignored Wizkid long ago and faced my career. Silence is
golden and it is usually the best answer to answer an attention-seeker.
Wizkid should be cautioned –Temitope Adebiyi, undergraduate
Should I tell you
the truth? They are fighting a supremacy war, period! I just pray that
it doesn’t degenerate into a situation where they try to take the life
of each other via hired assassins or charms. They should try to limit
the war to tweeter and instagram. As for who is at fault, I don’t really
no. But I think that Wizkid should be cautioned.
Davido started the fight –Sikirat Adebayo, hair stylist
I know very well
that Wizkid isn’t at fault. Davido is always looking for his trouble by
poking his nose where he has no business; Davido started this fight.
