Recently, Wizkid’s song “Bad To Me” was released, and it quickly rose to the top spot on Apple Music, knocking Asake’s song “Organise” to number two.
A feat that Davido, Burna Boy, and other well-known artists were unable to accomplish when they released their own songs.
Asake’s “Organise” is back at number one right now, and it’s unfortunate that all of Davido’s fans are backing Asake only to put Wizkid in the doghouse.
Remember that when Davido released “Stand Strong,” it failed to stay at the top for one day.
At this point, I’ll put my pen down and invite other Wizkid fans to join me in celebrating our own Machala.
I’ll be waiting for Machala supporters and detractors in the comment area.
Skiibi, a musician, and Ms DSF, an actress, have ended their relationship months after announcing it on social media.
The two ignited dating rumors in July of this year after sharing cuddly selfies of themselves.
DSF had published numerous images of them to snare their detractors. DSF contends that they must enrage their critics. On her Instagram story and Snapchat, DSF shared a number of images and videos of them using PDA.
She wrote in the image’s caption, “Offend Dem”. In another she wrote, “E dey pain dem….e dey sweet us”.
Additionally, Dorcas shared a video of the pricey gift that Skiibii gave her. Skiibii had wanted to spoil her because of her position. She wrote in the video’s caption, “My baby said pamper day”.
According to information obtained by 626blaze, the pair have split up since their situation has deteriorated and their relationship is no longer stable.
Looking at their Instagram accounts reveals that they have stopped following one another. According to a person close to the couple, Skiibii cheated on her and left her for another woman.
The best Nigerian musicians have names for their fan bases over the years, which helps to in some ways distinguish them from one another.
Without limitation, it is well known that Wizkid, also known as the “Wizkid FC,” has the largest fan base in Nigeria.
The ones belonging to Burna Boy and Davido are referred to as the “Outsiders” and the “30BG,” respectively.
Naira Marley and the “Marlians,” Rema and his “Ravers,” and so on are other examples.
Asake has been on my mind recently, and given that he is currently the center of attention and that many Nigerians appear to adore his music, I believe he should think about creating a moniker for his fanbase as well.
Though it has been challenging for me to think of one.
The excellent and Grammy-nominated fourth album from Wizkid, the pioneer of Afrobeats, can make you forget that the suave singer excels at getting the party started with passionate, fast-paced music. With songs like “Caro,” “African Bad Gyal,” and “Pakurumo,” Wizkid has dance floor fire whereas the majority of Suited in Lagos is made for slow whines and chilling out. In reality, his 2011 debut, Superstar, is an upbeat electronic track with an African edge that was probably influenced by EDM at the time.

Wizkid attempts to break out of the recent beautiful and sensual rut he’s been in by tackling the dance sound that is beginning to characterize this era in African music: Amapiano, on his first release of 2022 as the lead artist. The song “Bad to Me” was produced by P2J (the executive producer of Made in Lagos and a go-to beat-maker for Afro-excellence for many stars). It starts off with a four-count that sounds a bit like Pharrell but soon transitions into electrifying percussion with shekere and deep drums. Bright keys add some romance to the song as Wizkid enters with his first stanza, honoring yet another awful gyal and her spinning figure: “This kind of body don dey cause a migraine,” he goes.
The gentle image Wizkid has been cultivating over the past few years is combined with this club-focused moment to create the instantly appealing “Bad to Me.” From the log drum to the call-and-response outro’s echo (a la Asake or “Finesse”), it is obvious that the Starboy team is aware of the trends in world music. The release of “Bad to Me” has sparked an internet discussion on the origins of South African style’s effect on Nigerian music, however many Afrobeats artists have been exploring Amapiano as well.
When a Davido fanatic attempted to discredit Wizkid’s work by claiming that it was the result of Davido’s forays into Amapiano (such as the remix of “Ke Star,” “Champion Sound,” and “Watawi” with South African star Focalistic), DJ Maphorisa, a major figure in the genre, referred them to his collaborations with Wizkid and Burna Boy with Kabza De Small on “Sponono Others have attempted to stake a claim for themselves and their favorite Nigerian artists’ works using Amapiano components after Maphorisa’s remarks. But rather than claiming ownership of the hybrids, Maphorisa’s reaction to the Davido fan seemed to promote a deeper understanding of them. “No one owns amapiano anyone can do it n win,” he wrote.

In all honesty, Fireboy is progressively taking a back seat in YBNL as Asake receives more and more attention and buzz.
Although Asake is currently not on anyone’s level, including Olamide, Fireboy is still quite popular. He is scorching and sizzling hot.
Even if Asake may not be Olamide’s primary priority, it is natural to pay closer attention to the newest member of the team. Normal range.
It’s possible that Fireboy feels uncool in YBNL and wants to leave like Lyta.
I’ll explain, yes.
Do you still have any memories of Lyta’s 2019 YBNL incident?
In YBNL, history is set to repeat itself… What a wonderful moment it is to live.
Olamide didn’t drive Lyta out of YBNL or chase him away. In addition to feeling it, Lyta also felt neglected and that Fireboy was receiving all the attention, thus he made the decision to leave the label.
The exact same scenario is about to occur as Fireboy can become upset with how everything is currently developing around Asake.
It’s acceptable to feel that way because we are all just human. If the label starts paying more attention to another artist on the roster than of me and you, it will not be cool at all.
Check out the tweet below:
You noticed Makinde’s Tweet up there, right ?
I’m not the only one who is considering this, as you can see. It’s also being noticed by other people.
Well, allow me to pose this query to everyone:
Do you believe Asake will be able to remove Fireboy from YBNL, as she did with Lyta?
With his “African Giant” album, Burna Boy sets a new record.
Burna Boy
Burna Boy comes to mind while discussing record-breakers.
A new record was just set by the acclaimed album “African Giant” by the “Last Last” Crooner.
African Giant is now the first African album to receive a Gold certification from Canada.
Burna Boy, a singer from Nigeria, released his fourth studio album, African Giant. On July 26, 2019, Spaceship Entertainment, Bad Habit, Atlantic Records, and Warner Music published the album. Afrobeats, Afrobeat, dancehall, pop, and hip hop are all represented on the album.
