Rapper, Olamide has clarified the controversy over his claim that Wizkid is the greatest Afrobeats artist of this generation.
Olamide explained that his statement was personal and not meant to undermine other Afrobeats stars like Burna Boy and Davido.
He emphasized that these artists’ achievements are a result of their talent, hard work, and ability to rise above differing opinions.
On his X page, Olamide posted:
“Honestly, this whole lengthy 3-way conversation is pretty much whatever. You can’t diminish anyone’s greatness, whether they’re A-list, B-list, or anything else. Feel free to believe what you want or support whoever you choose—there’s plenty of room in the sky for everyone.
However, one thing to remember is that Burna, David, and Wiz aren’t narrow-minded enough to get offended by someone else’s opinion or perspective. That’s part of why they’ve reached where they are today.”
The clarification follows remarks he made at York University in Toronto, where he said, “After Fela, Wizkid is the greatest Afrobeats artist ever,” sparking debates among fans and critics.
