The rivalry between 30BG (Davido’s fanbase) and Wizkid FC (Wizkid’s fanbase) has been one of the most intense and longest-running feuds in the Nigerian music industry. The latest drama? Wizkid appears to have taken fresh shots at Davido, reigniting tensions between their loyal supporters.
A History of Clashes
For over a decade, both Davido and Wizkid have dominated the Afrobeats scene, leading to an inevitable fan war. While they have exchanged pleasantries in the past, moments of subtle shade, online brawls, and cryptic messages have fueled the narrative that they remain rivals rather than friends.
Wizkid’s Latest Subtle Jabs
In a recent social media post, Wizkid seemingly threw shade at Davido, sparking heated debates among fans. Though he didn’t mention names, phrases like “money can’t buy legacy” and “we talk less, do more” were enough for Wizkid FC to interpret it as a dig at the 30BG boss, who often flaunts his wealth and success.
Wizkid’s latest swipe comes just weeks after he dismissed comparisons with Davido and Burna Boy, claiming he operates on a different level. In an interview, he confidently stated, “There is only one Starboy, and that’s me.” This further fueled discussions about whether he was directly referring to Davido, who has often claimed to be the biggest artist in Africa.
Davido’s Subtle Responses
Davido, known for being more vocal and confrontational, responded in his own way. While he didn’t directly mention Wizkid, he posted a cryptic message saying, “If you’re truly the greatest, you don’t have to say it.” This was seen by many as a response to Wizkid’s recent claims.
Fanbase Wars Continue
As expected, both 30BG and Wizkid FC have taken to social media, exchanging words over who is truly the superior artist. The rivalry has extended beyond music, as fans argue over awards, international recognition, and influence in the industry. While some believe Wizkid’s global success puts him ahead, others argue that Davido’s consistency and dominance in Africa make him the bigger star.
Will There Ever Be Peace?
Despite these back-and-forths, both artists have occasionally shown respect for each other. However, their respective fanbases continue to fuel the rivalry, making it hard for any real reconciliation to take place.
For now, the battle between 30BG and Wizkid FC rages on, with every new comment, song, or post adding fuel to the fire. Will they ever truly settle their differences, or is this rivalry here to stay? Time will tell.
