In a recent interview that has stirred up quite a buzz in the music industry, Nigerian superstar Davido made headlines with a statement that seemed to shade fellow artist Burna Boy. The Afrobeat sensation referred to Burna Boy as an "upcoming artist," causing a frenzy among fans and sparking debates about the dynamics within the industry.
During the interview, Davido expressed his delight in witnessing the rise of new talents in the Nigerian music scene. He acknowledged the success of artists such as Rema, Fireboy, Mayorkun, and Asake, praising their ability to captivate audiences and make significant strides in their careers. However, it was his mention of Burna Boy as an "upcoming artist" that caught many by surprise.
Davido's comment seems to have stemmed from his perspective on the timing and trajectory of his own and Wizkid's rise to fame. Both Davido and Wizkid are considered pioneers of the modern Afrobeat movement, breaking barriers and gaining international recognition at a relatively young age. It is this distinction that Davido emphasized, contrasting his own journey with those of the artists he mentioned.
While some interpreted Davido's words as a slight towards Burna Boy, it is essential to consider the context in which they were said. The music industry is highly competitive, and artists often engage in friendly rivalry and playful banter. The comment could be seen as Davido playfully asserting his position as one of the trailblazers in the industry, rather than a direct attack on Burna Boy's talent or success.
