The Ultimate Showdown, Between Davido, Burna Boy and Wizkid
Who’s the True G.O.A.T?
Ah, here we go again.
The eternal debate that has turned friends into frenemies, WhatsApp groups into war zones, and family dinners into rap battles.
The trinity of Nigerian music, Davido, Burna Boy and Wizkid has fans worldwide sharpening their swords daily to argue who’s the true African Giant, Made in Lagos legend or A Better Time king.
So, let’s dive in (and stir the pot a little, shall we?).
Davido:
Mr. Assurance with the Billionaire Flex
If Davido was a Marvel character, he’d be Tony Stark, flashy, unapologetically rich, and always reminding you of his “I have money, so I’m better than you” energy.
Davido doesn’t just drop hits; he drops his bank statements in every song.
Don’t forget, this is the man who gave Chioma Assurance and gave us drama on the timeline.
The 30BG gang is basically the Illuminati of vibes, complete with champagne showers and Instagram-worthy flexes.
But let’s be honest:
Davido’s energy is contagious. Whether he’s screaming, “Shekpe!” or adding his signature frog voice (we said what we said), you’re going to vibe.
Who else can make a nursery rhyme (“E choke!”) trend globally?
And let’s not forget, he’s the Obo, a man who can casually announce, “My daddy owns half of Lagos,” and you’ll believe it because, well…he probably does.
Wizkid:
The Starboy Who Doesn’t Stress
Then there’s Wizkid, the Zlatan Ibrahimović of Afrobeats, cocky, smooth, and somehow still untouchable.
Starboy fans argue that Wizkid doesn’t need to yell or flex; he just exists, and the world bends to his aura.
Made in Lagos wasn’t just an album; it was a spiritual experience.
Listening to Wizkid is like sipping fine wine, smooth, elegant and leaves you feeling slightly superior to everyone else.
But let’s talk about his too cool for you attitude. Wizkid could drop an album with zero promo, zero features and zero effort and fans would still claim, “He’s feeding the streets!”
The man could record a song in his sleep, mumbling, “Soco soco,” and it’ll go triple platinum.
Let’s not even mention his Twitter fingers.
He’s the king of subliminals, saying a lot without really saying anything.
And somehow, it works.
Burna Boy:
The African Giant with Global Chest Beating
Now, here comes Burna Boy, the self-proclaimed African Giant and king of “I’m better than you, and I’ll tell you to your face.”
Burna’s music feels like a TED Talk on African pride, self-confidence and why you should never, EVER question his greatness.
He’s like that one guy in your group who’s been to one foreign country and suddenly can’t stop talking about it.
Only, in Burna’s case, he’s won a Grammy and performed at Madison Square Garden, so…fair enough.
But let’s not ignore Burna’s “Wahala pro max” personality.
He thrives on controversy.
Whether it’s shading his peers or declaring himself the best to ever do it, Burna Boy doesn’t just stir the pot; he breaks the spoon.
You can’t deny, though, his live performances are unmatched.
When Burna hits the stage, it’s not a concert; it’s a spiritual awakening.
Yet, somehow, he always finds time to beef with anyone who dares question his throne.
The Triangle of Chaos: Who Wins?
Imagine Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy in a WhatsApp group chat.
Davido’s typing in all caps, sending voice notes shouting “E choke!”, Wizkid is leaving everyone on read and Burna Boy is dropping “LOL, y’all ain’t on my level.”
Their fanbases are like football teams, relentless and irrational.
Wizkid FC claims their fave doesn’t need to prove anything;
Burna’s Outsiders argue he’s the only Nigerian artist recognized on the global stage and
30BG screams, “We rise by lifting others”
Meanwhile, the rest of us are just here eating popcorn and waiting for the next Twitter war.
In truth, there’s no winner in this debate, just three kings doing their thing in different ways.
But hey, who doesn’t enjoy a good sprinkle of drama?
So next time someone asks, “Davido, Burna Boy or Wizkid?” just smile and say, “Na dem”
Now, over to you:
Who’s your G.O.A.T?
And why is your answer guaranteed to cause a riot in the comments?
