In the dynamic and often competitive world of Nigerian music, beefs between artists can escalate quickly. Recently, renowned singer Wizkid, born Ayodeji Balogun, made waves with his sharp criticism of fellow artist Davido. This latest clash comes in the wake of Davido teasing his upcoming single featuring YG Marley.
Wizkid took to his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), to express his feelings about certain artists, hinting that they were releasing “mid” music—an industry term for mediocre or subpar songs. While he didn’t name names initially, it didn’t take long for fans to connect the dots and identify that his comments were aimed at Davido. This was especially notable given their previous heated exchanges on social media.
In a pointed post, Wizkid wrote, “P*ssy boys dropping mids again!” This remark set off a wave of speculation among fans, who began to speculate about the target of his criticism.
The situation escalated when a user on X, identified as @CulturalVoice, questioned Wizkid about the nature of his rivalry with Davido. The user asked, “So if you no beef @davido your song won’t sell?” This prompted Wizkid to respond emphatically, saying, “I don’t beef wack niggas! We all know he’s wack! No talent!”
Wizkid’s comments reveal not only his disdain for what he perceives as low-quality music but also suggest a deeper rivalry. The exchange illustrates the competitive nature of the Nigerian music scene, where artists often feel pressured to assert their dominance and defend their reputations.
Wizkid and Davido have a long-standing history of rivalry that has captivated fans and media alike. In the past, their conflicts have often played out in public forums, resulting in countless headlines and discussions among fans.

Both artists have significant fan bases, making their rivalry one of the most talked-about in the Nigerian music industry.
As both artists continue to release new music, fans are left wondering how this feud will affect their careers. Will the public spat translate into increased sales and streams for either artist? Historically, beefs can sometimes boost an artist’s visibility, leading to heightened interest in their music.
