A fresh feud has erupted in the Nigerian music industry's "Big 3" after Burna Boy's camp fired back at Wizkid for shading veteran singer 2Baba over his personal family matters.
The drama began when 2Baba declared Burna Boy the greatest Nigerian artist in a recent interview. Wizkid reportedly responded on his Snapchat story, telling 2Baba to stay out of music conversations and referencing the veteran's family issues—a move seen as a low blow.
This prompted a swift and sharp clapback from one of Burna Boy's official social media accounts. The post labeled Wizkid as “the only disgrace in the Big 3,” a heavy insult that ignited fan wars online.
The response went further to draw a distinction in achievements, implying Burna earns his accolades through legitimate tours and milestones without relying on collaborations with stars like Drake, Tems, or Asake—a clear dig at Wizkid's network.
The post concluded with a dismissive piece of advice to Wizkid: “Take a chill pill.”
The exchange has set social media ablaze, with fans of all three artists dissecting old interviews, comparing streaming numbers, tour data, and career achievements. The incident underscores the intense, often personal rivalry that simmers among Nigeria's top music acts, where praise for one can quickly spiral into public conflict involving others.
