Popular Nigerian blogger and media entrepreneur Linda Ikeji has ignited social media buzz after publicly stating her preference for Davido over Wizkid in a recent post.
In her controversial remark, Ikeji wrote:
“I will choose DAVIDO over Wizkid by far. Wizkid hasn’t done anything special. Davido is the Greatest.”
Her statement quickly went viral, drawing reactions from fans and followers of both artists. While some praised her for supporting Davido, others criticized the comment as dismissive of Wizkid’s achievements in the Nigerian and international music scenes.
Fans took to social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram to debate the merits of each artist. Some highlighted Wizkid’s global collaborations, awards, and influence in Afrobeat, while others emphasized Davido’s hit records, energetic performances, and commercial success.
Music analysts weighed in, noting that such comparisons are subjective and often driven by personal taste rather than objective metrics. Nevertheless, Ikeji’s bold statement has rekindled the age-old debate between Davido vs. Wizkid fans, a rivalry that has persisted for over a decade in Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
The comment underscores the influence of social media personalities in shaping public discourse and fan rivalries in Nigeria’s vibrant music landscape.
