Chief Munir Balogun, Wizkid’s father, has bravely stepped forward to address the growing rivalry between his son and fellow artist Davido.
In a candid interview with Punch Newspapers, Wizkid’s father expressed his concerns over the rising tension between the two Afrobeats stars. He explained how important it is to remain strong amid the chaos of fan rivalries and public criticism. Wizkid’s father shared that he advised his son to ignore the provocations from Davido’s fans, emphasizing that their intention is often to create drama rather than appreciate the music. He said:
“I told my son that he shouldn’t look or listen to whatever the boys who are supporters of Davido are saying. The supporters are only looking for what they will say to collect money and all of that.”
Chief Balogun highlighted that getting involved with such distractions could take Wizkid’s focus away from his craft and dilute the artistry that has made him an international sensation.
“They are just looking for what they are going to eat and I told him not to pay much attention to them,” Wizkid’s father added.
